Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour 30 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 45 minutes
Servings 6

Ingredients
  

  • 1 4-5 lb ribeye roast, boneless
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C).
  • Pat the ribeye roast dry with paper towels. Rub olive oil evenly over the surface.
  • Mix salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, rosemary, and thyme in a small bowl.
  • Rub the seasoning mixture all over the roast, ensuring an even coating.
  • Place the roast on a wire rack in a roasting pan, fat side up.
  • Roast at 450°F for 15 minutes to create a crust, then reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (163°C).
  • Continue roasting for about 1 hour 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare.
  • Remove the roast from the oven and tent loosely with foil. Let it rest for 20 minutes before slicing.
  • Slice and serve with your favorite side dishes.

Notes

  • For a deeper flavor, season the roast and refrigerate it uncovered overnight before cooking.
  • Use a meat thermometer for precision; 135°F (57°C) for medium doneness.
  • Letting the roast rest ensures the juices redistribute for a more tender result.
