Cooking Directions:
This dry rub recipe can be used for up to 2 pounds of meat. The amount of time depends on the thickness of your cut of meat.
1. When cooking with this marinade, heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of butter. Add meat to the skillet and sear on all sides. Remember, you want a dark caramelized outer crust to develop. If you like medium-rare, remove your roast when the temperature range is about 130 to 135 degrees.

2. Let your roast rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. Finish with a pinch of kosher salt.
