Heat the oven to 450 F. Roast, foil on, for 30 minutes. Reduce heat to 425 F and continue roasting for about 20 minutes per pound of weight, or until the temperature reaches at least 145 F. For a 5-pound roast, that's 1 hour and 40 minutes of oven time after the first 30 minutes at 450 F. Once done, tent the roast with foil and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Serve and enjoy.
