By PineyCook

Ingredients

• 2 pounds boneless rump or rib roast
• kosher salt and pepper
• 1 pint grape tomatoes
• 1 head garlic, cloves peeled
• 8 sprigs fresh thyme
• 3 tablespoons olive oil

Preparation

Step 1

Directions

Heat oven to 350° F.

Season the beef with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and place in a large roasting pan.

In a bowl, combine the tomatoes, garlic, thyme, oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

Scatter the tomato mixture around the meat and roast to the desired doneness, about 1 hour for medium-rare (internal temperature 125° F).

Transfer the beef to a cutting board and let rest at least 10 minutes before slicing. Divide among individual plates and serve with the tomatoes and garlic.
