FAQs:
How long do I roast beef per pound?
A general rule is to roast for 20 minutes at 450°F (232°C) followed by 15-20 minutes per pound at 350°F (175°C) for medium-rare.
Can I cook a frozen roast beef?
It’s best to thaw the beef roast before cooking, as cooking it from frozen can result in uneven cooking. If you must cook from frozen, extend the cooking time by about 50%.
What’s the best cut of beef for roasting?
Popular choices include ribeye, sirloin, and chuck roasts. Ribeye is rich and tender, while sirloin offers a leaner option. Choose based on your taste preference and budget.
How do I know when the roast beef is done?
The most accurate way to check doneness is by using a meat thermometer. For medium-rare, it should reach 135°F; for medium, 145°F.
