📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees then add tomatoes to the bottom of a roasting pan or large baking dish and toss with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place roasting rack inside pan, or fold three pieces of foil to mimic a rack (see photos in post.)

2
Trim roast of excess fat then pierce meat all over with a small knife and insert garlic slivers. Rub outside with extra virgin olive oil, a generous amount of salt and pepper, and a teaspoon or two of dried rosemary then place on top of rack. Roast for ⏱️ 30-60 minutes, depending on the size of the roast and desired level of doneness. The 2-1/2lb roast in these photos took ⏱️ 40 minutes to reach an internal temperature of 125 degrees when tested with an instant-read thermometer, to yield medium-rare beef after resting (see notes).

Let meat rest for at least ⏱️ 15 minutes before carving very thin and against the grain.
4
While beef is resting remove tomatoes to a plate then set aside. Pour juices from roasting pan into a small saucepan then add up to a can of beef broth and simmer until slightly reduced. Serve roasted tomatoes and au jus sauce with sliced beef, or pile into a bun with melted swiss or provolone cheese and caramelized onions, and dip into au jus sauce.
