Directions
1.
Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Brush the beef with 1 tablespoon of the oil and 1 tablespoon of the vinegar. Season the beef all over with 2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon of the rosemary, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Toss the onion, fennel, and potatoes with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, 1 tablespoon vinegar, 1 teaspoon rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Spread the vegetables over the bottom of a 9x13-inch Pyrex dish. Nestle the roast, fat side up, in the middle of the vegetables.
2.
Roast the beef until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of the beef registers 125 degrees F for medium rare, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. Transfer the beef to a cutting board to rest for 10 min. Meanwhile, raise the oven temperature to 450 degrees F. Give the vegetables a stir and continue to roast them until they are browned and tender, about 10 min. more. Thinly slice the beef, sprinkle with salt, and serve with the vegetables.

Part of this soup is pureed to add body, but it remains chunky and chowder-like and is also good chilled. If you make it ahead and reheat it, you may need to thin it with a bit of water.
