How to Make 10 Clove Stove Top Roast

1. Pat 2 lbs beef roast dry and generously rub with 1 tbsp freshly ground black pepper.
2. Place the seasoned roast in a heavy-bottomed pot (at least 6 quarts) large enough to comfortably hold the meat.
3. Drizzle 2 tbsp olive oil over the meat, turning to coat evenly.
4. Add 1 bay leaf and 10 cloves of garlic to the pot. Marinate for 15 minutes.
5. Remove the bay leaf.
6. Brown the meat over medium-high heat, turning frequently for even browning. This will take approximately 15-20 minutes, depending on the size of your roast.
7. When the garlic begins to lightly brown (about 5 minutes), remove it using a slotted spoon. Set aside.
8. Once the roast is well-browned on all sides, return the browned garlic cloves to the pot. Remove the pot from the heat and cover tightly.
9. Let the meat rest, covered, for 15-30 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender roast.
10. Check internal temperature; it should reach 140°F (60°C) for rare.
11. After resting, season the pan juices generously with salt to taste.
12. Thinly slice the rested roast against the grain. Sprinkle with sea salt, and serve with the garlic and flavorful pan juices.
