Tips:

  • Choose a high-quality roast beef: Look for a roast with good marbling, as this will help keep it moist and flavorful during cooking.
  • Sear the roast before roasting: Searing the roast helps to develop a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the roast is cooked to your desired doneness:
  • For rare: 125°F (52°C)
  • For medium-rare: 135°F (57°C)
  • For medium: 145°F (63°C)
  • For medium-well: 155°F (68°C)
  • For well-done: 165°F (74°C)
  • Let the roast rest before carving: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
  • Serve the roast with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or Yorkshire pudding.

Whether you're a seasoned cook or a beginner, this classic roast beef recipe is sure to impress your family and friends.
