Calories: 480kcal
- 4 pounds eye of round roast
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar packed
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and black pepper in a mixing bowl.
Add the roast to a large ziplock bag and pour the marinade over the roast. Toss to make sure all sides are well covered. Refrigerate for 24 hours.
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare a roasting pan with a wire rack.
Place the roast on the wire rack, discarding the rest of the marinade. Roast for 15 minutes at 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Reduce the temperature of the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and continue roasting until the meat registers 125 degrees Fahrenheit, about 1 hour. (I highly suggest using an instant read thermometer as cuts of this roast can vary and that will change the cooking time.) Remove from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Cut in very thin slices to serve.
