We are a meat-loving family, and I love roasts. It’s so easy to just put your favorite cut of meat in the oven and let it do the cooking for you. It just makes putting dinner on the table so easy.
The secret to making a great roast is not only choosing the perfect cut and having a great rub recipe, but also cooking it slowly. Especially an inexpensive cut like this one.
The rub I used on this beef sirloin tip roast is a great one. It really made for a delicious tasting roast.
Spices like paprika, cayenne pepper, oregano, thyme, onion powder, and minced garlic mixed with olive oil not only give the roast a great flavor, they also give it great color. It is as pleasing to the eye as it is tasty.
WHAT IS A SIRLOIN TIP ROAST?
It is a cut obtained from the hindquarters of the cow. It is also called a round tip roast. It is recommended that it be slowly cooked, because the larger the muscle, the tougher the cut. Slow cooking tenderizes the meat.
HOW TO COOK SIRLOIN TIP ROAST?
- In a small bowl mix the minced garlic, salt, pepper, and spices with the olive oil and let the mixture sit for 15 mins
- Preheat the oven to 450F. Brush the roast on all sides with the mixture until well covered
- Place the roast on a foil-lined baking sheet and cook it for one hour. Let it rest 15 minutes before slicing.
HOW LONG TO COOK A SIRLOIN TIP ROAST?
The basic rule is to cook it 20-22 minutes per pound. You can also use a meat thermometer and depending on how you like your meat, use this rule:
- Rare: 120-125 degrees in the middle
- Medium rare: 130-135 degrees in the middle
- Medium: 140 degrees in the middle
- Well done: 160 degrees and over
WHAT TO SERVE WITH SIRLOIN TIP ROAST?
I like to make my life easy, so I throw some Russet potatoes in the oven with my roast.
You can wrap them in foil and just put them at the same time. They usually take one hour to cook, so it’s perfect. Just add a tossed salad or caesar salad dressing and you’re done!
