Category: Beef

Makes 4 servings.

1 3/4 lb. rump roast, tied with string
1 tsp. black peppercorns
1 tsp. white peppercorns
1 tsp. green peppercorns in brine
1 tsp. coarse sea salt
1 tsp. dried thyme leaves
1 T. olive oil

Allow the meat to stand at room temperature for 1 hour before cooking.
Preheat oven to 475F. Place a baking dish or roasting pan, large enough for the roast, in oven to preheat.
Combine peppercorns with coarse salt in a mortar; grind together. Add thyme; mix well.
Pat roast dry with paper towel; brush with oil; season evenly with ground herbs and spices.
Place a rack in baking dish so that meat will be exposed to heat on all sides.
Place on rack and roast at 475F for 30 minutes.
Turn off oven and let roast rest in oven for another 10 minutes without opening oven door before slicing.
