Beef Roast

Sep 03, 2003 4 Replies

What's the best way to bake a beef roast? I've never cook a beef roast before but I've cooked a pork roast and it turned out great. I want the beef roast to turn out the same way.


Baking is for bread - Roasting is for meat.

Title: My Roast Beef Recipe By: HELEN PEAGRAM Category: Family Main Ingredient: Beef Cuisine Style: Yield: 4 Servings Preparation Time: 0:00 Cooking Time: 0:00

[Amount] [Measure] [Ingredient (or Header)] -- [Preparation]

---------- ------------ ---------------------------------------------- 3 lb Roast -- sirloin, sirloin tip, rump, round

[Preparation] Choose a tender cut, Rib, rolled rib, sirloin, sirloin tip, rump, or round roast.

Remove roast from frig at least 2 hours before ready to cook.

Preheat oven to 500.

Place meat fat side up in a well greased roasting pan, on a rack Do NOT cover.

Add about 1/2 inch water.

Place in oven and time for 30 minutes. Reduce heat to 275.

Continue cooking for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours and test with meat thermometer.

I find about 120-140 produces a medium rare result.

Probably 160 for well done.

An excellent site, thank you for posting the link.

E.G.

Would you care to elaborate on the "I think that site is wrong on many of= it's statements"?

BTW, there is nothing wrong with using a roasting rack to keep the meat o= ut of potential juices. Although it can be replaced with mirepoix (roasting vegetables). But that would be futile if you add Water.
