Directions:
Preheat oven to 500 degrees F. Season the roast and place in a roasting pan. Do not cover or add water.
Place the roast in the preheated oven. Reduce the temperature to 475 degrees F. Roast for 7 minutes per pound and then turn off the oven and let the roast sit in the hot over for 50 minutes per pound. DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR AT ALL DURING THIS TIME!
Remove roast from oven. The internal temperature should have reached at least 145 degrees. Carve into thin slices to serve.
Perfect rare roast beef every time. I was raised a vegetarian, so cooking meat is a challenge. Found this on-line and now I am the go-to person for rare roast beef. I tie the oven door shut and tape up a sign, to keep the curious from opening the door.
I also use this method. It truly is fool proof and works for all beef roasts. Try it with prime rib. Go with a little less time, cause its a sin to take prime rib to a full medium rare.
Oh, man ... thanks for that recipe!!! I can bake pies ... maybe now I can make good rare roast beef!!!! THANK YOU!!

My friend told me about this recipe last month. It was the first time in all my years of cooking that a roast turned out delicious.
so for a 5 pounder, you roast high for 35min and then let it sit in the hot oven for another 250 min...4 more hours????..does it stay hot?.
