Conceived by rancher and blogger, Terryn Drieling, this recipe is as good as is sounds. Green herbs provide more flavor to this roast that is sure to satisfy any hungry family.

“As part of my ranch wife duties, I feed the crews of folks who come help us when the work load is too much for my husband and I to handle on our own. Whatever I choose to serve has to be insanely flavorful and easy-to-eat on the fly. Trust me, this Roast Beef recipe does not disappoint. In fact, this recipe has earned a place in my top five favorite beef recipes – and has left several speechless with its ridiculous tastiness.” – Terryn Drieling, rancher and author of the blog, Faith Family and Beef. Terryn lives in Nebraska with her husband and three kids and is the recipient of the Beef Checkoff’s Advocate of the Year in 2018.
