Ingredients

  • Roast Beef
  • 1 ½ tablespoons cracked black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 5 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • 1 (3-pound) sirloin tip roast or bottom round roast, all excess fat removed (leave at room temperature for 15 minutes before roasting)
  • Creamy Horseradish Sauce
  • 2 cups nonfat sour cream
  • ½ cup peeled, grated fresh horseradish or prepared horseradish
  • ¼ cup coarse Dijon mustard

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Combine the black pepper, salt, and garlic, and rub all over the roast. Place the meat in a large roasting pan. Roast the meat for about 20 minutes. 
  2. Reduce the heat to 325 degrees F, and bake for about 50 additional minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted in the roast registers 140 degrees F for medium rare. Cook longer if desired.
  3. Remove the roast from the oven. Cover loosely with foil, and let stand for 15-20 minutes. Cut the meat across the grain into thin slices. 
  4. Combine the ingredients for the horseradish sauce, and serve with the sliced beef.
