Garlic Roast

(Courtesy of Mr Food)

Ingredients:
1 (3-3 1/2 lb.) beef eye of round roast
2 Tbsp. vegetable oil, divided
8 whole garlic cloves, peeled
1 tsp. paprika
1/2 tsp. onion powder
3/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Using a long, thin knife, carefully make a horizontal slit through the center of the roast.  Twist knife to make a 1/2 inch hole (it does not have to stay open on its own).

In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, heat 1 tsp. vegetable oil.  Saute garlic cloves 3-4 minutes, or until lightly browned, stirring often.  Remove from heat and allow to cool.

In a small bowl, combine remaining ingredients (including remaining oil) except the roast; mix well and set aside.

When garlic is cool enough to handle, push cloves into the hole in the center of the roast until they fill the hole.  Rub oil mixture over entire roast and place in an 8x8 baking dish.

Roast 60-75 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted in center indicates 160 degrees for medium, or until desired doneness.
