Preheat oven: Preheat to 450°F (230°C). Line a roasting pan with foil or place a rack in a roasting pan.
Prepare the beef: Pat the roast dry with paper towels. Rub all over with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, onion powder, and paprika.

Cook: Continue roasting until internal temperature reaches desired doneness: 125°F (52°C) for rare/ 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare/ 145°F (63°C) for medium
Rest: Remove from oven, tent with foil, and let rest for 15–20 minutes before slicing.
