There is nothing quite as impressive asserving roast beef for holiday guests.

In fact, you hardly even need a roasting pan for roast beef.

So why would you put your roast in a pan that will insulate the bottom and sides?

Especially when you’re free to use the ovens natural convection to evenly cook all the sides.

This is why the perfect roast beef is cooked directly on your ovens center rack.

Heat the oven to 375F and cover a baking sheet with foil.

This makes clean-up easier.

Place the prepared baking sheet on the rack underneath the roast.

The baking sheet captures the dripping.

(you’ve got the option to use it for gravy,Yorkshire pudding, orroasting vegetables.)
