Ingredients

2 pound beef tenderloin roast trimmed and wrapped in kitchen twine
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon minced rosemary
3 cloves garlic grated
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray; set aside. Let beef roast sit out at room temperature at least 30 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil with rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper. Pat beef roast dry with paper towel then rub evenly with rosemary garlic rub on all sides.
Insert instant read digital thermometer in thickest part of beef. Roast beef 35-45 minutes or until you've reached desired doneness (remove roast when meat thermometer registers 135°F for medium rare; 150°F for medium.)
Remove from oven and tent with foil to let rest 10 minutes before slicing to serve.

Notes

I like to let my beef roast come to room temperature about 30-45 minutes sitting on the counter before placing in the oven. I find this helps reduce shrinkage when roasting. You can also season with a little salt and pepper at this time.
