I cooked it at 460 degrees for 20 minutes then turned it down to 325 i
refered to my meat thermometer for doneness..and it worked out to be about
20 minutes per pound for med rare..
I kept the same portion of oil mixture as the recipe called for and covered
the entire roast with it not just the top. Trust me it was so good..actually
i am having the leftovers right now as we speak and it still tastes great..
Oh....One more thing...the drippings that were in the pan make a good juice
for it..i added a little water to the bottom of the roaster and wisked it to
scrape the bottom of the pan..and served it on the side..
Enjoy!!!.
