Instructions: Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Cut slits in roast and insert cloves of garlic

(I use about 4-5 small cloves on a 3 # roast), season roast with pepper.

Place roast in oven, fat side up and roast for 5 minutes per pound. Turn off oven and let rest WITHOUT OPENING OVEN DOOR for 2 hours. Turn oven to one of the following settings and roast as desired.

1/2 hour @ 200 for Rare
1/2 hour @ 300 for Medium 1 hour @ 300 for well done.

NOTES : Notes: I usually do first baking for about 7 minutes per pound.

Second about 45 minutes on 300. This gives me a Medium/well done roast, but not dry. If it is too rare for your tastes, just pop it back in the oven for a while longer.
