Made this for dinner last night~and all I can say is "Fabulous!" We had an early "Father's Day" because my family was over. I prepped this earlier in the day, and let the roast marinate in the vegetable mixture in my very cold fridge for about 2 hours. I browned the bottom of the roast on our outside grill for a bit, and put it right into the oven. This roast produced some very succulent juices and was perfect for gravy making. I also gently rubbed the outside of the roast (before grilling) with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Dreamgoddess, this is a terrific dish! Thank you! Made for ZWT3 07 '.

    I found this recipe to be quite good. Although in my house four pounds of meat is not six servings. I have big eaters here. Otherwise a very great tasting version of roast beef. I give it four stars. David (aka LIIT Guy)

    We really enjoyed this tasty tasty beef. The roast was moist, tender, juicy and flavourful. It was very easy to make and cooked perfectly. We made delicious roastbeef sandwiches with it...thanks so much for sharing Dreamgoddess, I'll be making this version often.

    Made this for Sunday lunch and it was fantastic. Has such a great flavor. We enjoyed it for lunch and then the next day, I made a gravy with the drippings, sliced what was left of the roast thin and put back in the gravy to heat and served over toasted French Bread. Even better the second day. Made pretty much as directed.
