Serves 4
Hands-On Time: 10m
Total Time: 1hr 20m

Ingredients
2 pounds boneless rump or rib roast
kosher salt and pepper
1 pint grape tomatoes
1 head garlic, cloves peeled
8 sprigs fresh thyme
3 tablespoons olive oil

Directions
Heat oven to 350° F.

Season the beef with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and place in a large roasting pan.
In a bowl, combine the tomatoes, garlic, thyme, oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
