Ingredients
- 1/2 cups Salt
- 1/4 cups Garlic Powder
- 2 Tablespoons Pepper
- 3 pounds Filet Mignon, UNCUT Rump Roast
Method
- The recipe Im about to share with you is so easy, even a caveman can make it.
- Our bachelor-friend shared this recipe with us; I modified it a bit, and named it after his nickname in his honor.
- You just need a Ziploc bag and a covered roasting pan with a rack (my small, cheap one works wonderfully) to get started!
- 1.
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- 2.
- Measure salt, garlic and pepper into a Ziploc bag.
- Seal and shake until combined.
- Reopen and add the entire roast to the bag.
- You do not want to cut it!
- You just want to remove the wrapper and dump it in there!
- Shake until completely coated.
- Remove the meat from the bag and place the cut of meat (fat side up) on the rack inside the roasting pan.
- 3.
- Cover and bake for an hour at 400F, then LOWER THE TEMPERATURE to 250F and bake for another two hours.
- Dont add water or anything else.
- Just leave it covered tightly and it will be plenty moist!
- 4.
- Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
- Serve with peppers, onions and mushrooms, sauteed in butter or olive oil.
- Mashed potatoes are wonderful, too.
- Crusty bread.
- Salad.
- This is such an easy meal to impress with, and it doesnt make a mess out of your kitchen!
- I like to buy a few meat cuts when theyre on sale and freeze them.
- Theyre not as cheap as hamburger, but most definitely cheaper than taking everyone out to a restaurant.
- Please note that you can add more pepper, if desired, if you like a bit more heat.
- And you can certainly make more than this at one time.
- Just increase the cooking time (for example, for 7 pounds of meat, I would bake it for 1 1/2 hours at 400F, then for 3 hours at 250F).
