Default Sirloin Tip Roast

Hi everybody, I'm new here - just purchased a sirloin tip roast, about
2 lbs., because the price was great.

I'm a terrific cook, but never bought one of these before - just
thought I'd try something different. Does anyone have any good recipes
I can try? I do have a slow cooker. Thanks!

It will depend on variables like the temp of the meat, the accuracy of=20
your oven, the caloric output of your oven, etc.

Not long, is what I'd say. Use a thermometer like the pros do.

Thx, Bob. Can you recommend one? My trusty old meat thermometer bit the
dust a while back.

1. let roast come to room temp.
2. preheat oven to 500
3. place roast in a pan on a rack with 1/2 inch water.
4. place roast in preheated oven for 30 min.
5. Turn down heat to 275.
6. roast 1 1/4-1 1/2 hours.
7. Check internal temp with meat thermometer. Should be about 50 for med
rare.
8. Wrap roast in foil to let rest for 15 min. Make gravy with drippings.
9. Slice and serve with mashed potatoes, gravy and veggie of choice.

This would be a few hours on the counter and is a good idea. It means=20

Water in the bottom of a roasting pan serves no real purpose. It=20

This is guesswork. The temperature, size and shape of the meat, the=20
vessel used, the accuracy of the oven, how many times the door is=20
opened, etc. will be determinants of cooking time.

I assume this temp reading is a typo and would be 150=B0. That's not med =

rare, it's med well. Med rare would be in the 130=B0-135=B0 range.

rare=3D cold red center =3D no more than 125
med rare=3D warm red center =3D 130-135
med=3D warm pink center =3D 140-145
med well=3D hot pink center (reduced area) 150-160
well=3D nasty brown center =3D 170+

Wrapping it in foil softens the crust because of moisture=20
redistribution. But it also keeps heat in to make the meat be cooked=20
even more.

Either of two choices. A remote-reading one that has a probe to leave=20
in whatever you're cooking. Polder is the one I have. Around $23. A=20
quick-read thermo from any supermarket or kichenwares store; under $10.

A 2lb piece of sirloin tip is not a roast, it's a large steak and is best
marinated and grilled or broiled (a la london broil). A whole sirloin tip
weighs some 15lbs... I don't consider any beef cut under 4-5lbs a roast. If
you attempt roasting that 2lb piece of sirloin by time odds are it'll become
over cooked, even your dog will be disappointed.

Thing is, the cut is barrel-shaped, like a roast. (about 4") I think if
I broiled it the outside would be charcoal before the inside was done.
But....as I said, I've never made one of these before.

But....I suspect my kitties would eat it even if it WERE half burnt/half
raw!

Slice it across the grain into a couple steaks.

Sirloin Tip is my favorite for cooking in my crockpot. I put the roast in
the crockpot and sprinkle it well with garlic salt and coarsely ground
pepper. I do not add any liquid. I cook it on high for 1 hour then turn it
down to low and cook for an additional 6 or 7 hours. If you do not want to
do the initial cooking on high, cook on low for 10 hours. I've been cooking
sirloin tips like this for many, many years and it turns out perfect every
time for me.

What wait? I put it on in the morning, go about my business, and it is ready
for my evening meal.

When using a crock pot, shouldn't I put things like celery and green
peppers in towards the last hour or two?

I never had a crock pot until I got one for my most recent birthday.
I've used it once thus far - to make vegetable soup - and followed the
directions in the booklet to the letter. The potatoes were fine, but
the frozen veggies were like mush! So, I'm thinking that perhaps
non-root veggies need a lot less time?

Hi again,

Let me know what you think of the recipe if you try them. I've never had a
crockpot either but I got a nice 6 quart for christmas last year & I've used
it maybe 5 times. But I plan on using it more this year. Like today I plan
on making a lentil soup in it.
Also last year I made chilli in it and it was really good but I found it too
watery. Someone gave me a great tip..I was told to put the handle of a
wodden spoon under the lip that way a little bit of air can escape.

take care,
Spoons

That sort of defeats the purpose of the slow
cooker though. I recall reading that each time the
lid is lifted it takes 30-60 minutes for the crock
to regain the heat loss.
