Cooking Tips

• Make sure to let the roast come to room temperature before cooking to ensure even cooking.
• Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the roast for doneness.
• For medium-rare, the internal temperature should be around 135°F, and for medium, it should be around 145°F.
• Letting the roast rest before slicing allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a juicier roast.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover roast can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
• To reheat, slice the roast and place it in a baking dish with a little beef broth or gravy.
• Cover with foil and heat in a preheated oven at 350°F until warmed through.
• Serve the leftover roast in sandwiches or use it in a stir-fry or salad for a quick and delicious meal.
