Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Rub beef roast with salt and pepper. In medium bowl, mix parsley, oregano, rosemary, garlic and oil. Press mixture onto top and sides of beef.
• Place beef on rack in shallow roasting pan. Place bacon slices over top of beef, tucking ends under bottom. Insert meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of beef.
• Bake uncovered 35 to 50 minutes or until thermometer reads 140°F for medium-rare or 155°F for medium doneness. Remove beef from oven, cover with foil and let stand about 15 minutes until temperature rises 5°.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Generously salt and pepper both sides of the steak. Wrap the steak with the bacon and secure with a toothpick.
