High Temperature Eye-of-Round Roast

By: Lyn B 
"Eye of round roast is roasted at 500 degrees F. This recipe takes a very tough piece of meat and makes it so tender and delicious. Feel free to improvise with the seasonings and use garlic salt in place of regular salt. The easiest roast you'll ever cook!"

This Kitchen Approved Recipe has an average star rating of 4.5 Rate/Review | Read Reviews (1,011)
