found (a variant on) this while googling for cook times for a beef roast.
Preheat oven to 500°F.Pat beef roast down with garlic powder, thyme, basil, oregano, black pepper, and liberal amounts of nutmeg. Set roast in pan such that fat is on top, to baste meat while cooking. (Okay, I’ll grant you that it’s nice that, on Atkins, I don’t have to spaz about fat on meat…) Bake for twenty minutes at 500°F, then reduce heat to 350°F and continue baking. Bake roast for thirty-five minutes per pound (including the initial twenty minutes). Not bad. Not great, but okay. Would have been better had I cooked it more rare, but I haven’t made a roast in ages and I got the internal temp wrong. Alas.
