I picked up a 2.8 lb sirloin tip roast on sale the other day, and I was planning on doing something with it today. Not sure what, though. Old threads say to roast until medium or medium rare, and one said to make carne guisada. What does the FDB say today? TIA

Trade it in for a chuck roast. If that isn't an option sear the hell out of it and cook to medium rare. I've had it injected with worchester sauce and it wasn't bad.

Also, roasting is pretty tasty, but it will be tough unless you marinate and tenderize the piss out of it

It makes a great medium rare slow roasted beef. I don’t like to call it tough I like to think of it as a bit of a chew which I like.

Season outside with garlic and a bunch of herbs really well. If you have time wrap and let sit overnight. If not rub wth oil and sear all sides really well then put into a low oven about 250-275. Is a slow roast until medium rare about an hour and 20 minutes but check at an hour. Pull at 125 and let rest.

Slice and enjoy. Make an au jus with the pan drippings. Tons of flavor.

I know this is true for most roasts, but is this also true for a sirloin tip roast? Most recipes I find online for this cut cook it until medium or medium rare.

Personally, I'm down for any method with tasty results.

My dad would season the outside generously with lemon pepper and put it to the side on his barrel put, turning it around a few times but not over. Cooked to medium rare. We’d thin slice it and dip the meat in the juices. Delicious.

You said the same thing in a couple of the old threads I found. I'd really like to try it that way, but I don't have a grill. I've bookmarked this post for some day in the future.

I'm leaning towards searing it in a cast iron pan and then roasting until medium, maybe medium rare in the oven. My oven is convection instead of conventional, though, and I can't find my meat thermometer. Does anyone have any advice for cooking temp and time with that in mind?

Wish I’d seen this earlier. I’m braising one like a chuck roast and I have a feeling it’s gonna be tough as hell.
