This is a combination of two great recipes! I found these recipes on a cooking site. One recipe was for the crust (by Magpieno6) and one was for the cooking method (by Wynnebaer) of the roast beef! Both worked perfectly together! I added my photo!

How To Make perfect roast beef with a garlic crust
-
Step 1Season the roast beef with salt and pepper.
-
Step 2Now make the garlic crust by heating the oil in a frying pan.
-
Step 3Add Garlic and saute for 2 minutes, stirring. Then mix in breadcrumbs, parsley, salt and black pepper
-
Step 4Allow mixture to cool, then press this mixture onto the seasoned roast beef. This should be enough to cover just the top and sides of the roast.
-
Step 5Preheat oven to 500*
-
Step 6Bake UNCOVERED for exactly 23 minutes. This cooking time will give you a medium/well roast, as in the picture. If you want it more or less cooked adjust the cooking time. For medium/rare 15 minutes.
-
Step 7Shut oven off and DO NOT open door for 1 hour (important)
-
Step 8Take roast out and let it rest for 15 minutes, covered.
-
Step 9Then just slice and serve.
