Directions
Place the meat on a rack in a roasting pan. Bake for 40 to 60 minutes, or until meat reaches desired doneness (130 degrees for medium-rare and 140 degrees for medium). Lightly tent it with a single layer of foil and let rest, untouched, for 10 to 15 minutes.
While the meat is roasting, make the pomegranate rosemary reduction. Add remaining 2 teaspoons oil to the leftover juices in the skillet and sauté the shallots until softened and translucent. Add the pomegranate juice and red wine, scraping up all the browned bits on the bottom of the skillet. Stir in rosemary sprig and salt. Bring to a simmer; continue simmering until reduced by half. Add the vinegar and honey; continue simmering a few more minutes. Remove the mixture from the heat, strain and whisk in softened butter.
Serve roast with pomegranate rosemary reduction.
