What Should I Do If The Roast Is Browning Too Quickly in the Oven?

Should I Cover The Roast With Foil While Cooking?
It’s not necessary to cover the roast with foil while cooking, as the initial high heat helps to develop a flavorful crust. However, if the roast is browning too quickly, you can tent it loosely with foil to prevent excessive browning while it continues to cook.
Can I Use Dried Herbs Instead of Fresh?
Yes, you can substitute dried herbs for fresh in the rub mixture. Use about half the amount of dried herbs as you would fresh, as their flavors are more concentrated.
