You can fabricate a rack of sorts from crumpled aluminum foil... but eye round
being so lean you really don't need a rack. Remove any silver skin but leave
all the fat, hopefully the butcher left some. Tie every 2 inches, season with
s n' p and coat lightly with oil. Preheat oven to 375F. Place roast fat side
up on center shelf. Then after 10 minutes lower temperature to 325F. For
med-rare roast 25 minutes per pound. Let stand 15 minutes and then with a
sharp knife slice thin... no thicker than 1/32". Do not over cook. Well done
eye round becomes shoe leather.
