Configuring an App to Run as Root

What is the most streamlined way to set up an application to run with root ownership while you are logged in as an administrative user? I know you can set this up with an application like Pseudo, but how would you do it directly? Simply changing the permissions to root ownership doesn't seem to accomplish it. I think because it's still looking for ancillary files such as preferences inside my user folder, while when I run via Psudo, it works properly, looking for the files downstream from /private/var/root.
Can someone please clarify?
