Roast Beef Cooking Tips

How to roast beef perfectly & exactly how you like it.

1. For best results, always take your meat out of the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for about an hour before roasting.
   This will help to ensure that your joint roasts evenly and stays tender.
2. When it comes to your roast beef cooking temperatures it is important that the oven is always be preheated.
3. When putting in the oven, ensure any fat on the joint is on top.
   This will ensure that the fat drips down and bastes itself whilst roasting.
4. Cook roast in the centre of the oven for best results.
5. Use your meat thermometer to test your cut’s final internal temperature.
6. Once cooked, allow to rest at room temperature for 10 minutes before slicing.
   This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
   Cover the joint with a tent of aluminium foil or wrap in a tea towel.
7. Remember to remove your roast just before you reach the temperature goal, as it will continue to cook while resting.
8. Make gravy with the Au jus right out of the roasting tin after you have removed the meat to rest.
9. For best results, carve into slices by cutting against the grain.
