Take the roast out of the refrigerator 60 minutes before cooking to let it reach room temperature.
Preheat your oven to 325°F.
If the roast is very lean, drizzle olive oil over it. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place on a wire rack on a baking sheet.
Bake for about 25 to 30 minutes per pound for medium doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check when done, removing it from the oven when 10 degrees below desired doneness.
Let the roast rest for at least 15 minutes, tented in aluminum foil before carving and serving.
For doneness: Rare: 120-130°F; Medium Rare: 130-135°F; Medium: 135-145°F; Medium Well: 145-155°F; Well Done: 155°F and above.
