Susans Sirloin Tip Roast Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Sear roast on all sides by placing in a very hot greased iron skillet and turning every couple of minutes.
• 2. Place roast in crock pot on low. Pour the water around the roast. Sprinkle with pepper and a little salt if desired. Place the garlic and onions over top of the roast. Cover crock pot and cook on low 6 hours.
• 3. With a meat thermometer, check the thickest part of the roast for doneness. I cook until it reaches 160 degrees. When done, remove roast from crock pot with 2 large spatulas or spoons and place on serving platter.
• 4. Take meat juices and onions from crock pot and place in sauce pan. Dissolve 1/4 cup flour in 1/2 cup water and add to drippings. Boil as for gravy until thick. Add more water if necessary to achieve desired consistency.
• 5. This roast should slice - it does for me. The cooking time is approximate depending on the size of your roast and how the crock pot cooks. I used the medium size crock pot - about 3 quarts capacity.

Steps:

• Remove roast from refrigerator one hour before serving to bring meat to room temperature for more even cooking.
• Mix together rest of ingredients and rub over roast.
• Let set for one half hour.
• Preheat oven to 325°, place roast in pan and place on upper oven rack.
• Cook for 25 minutes per lb for medium or approximately 50 to 60 minutes.
• Use a meat thermometer to check doneness - should read 140° for medium.

Steps:

• Place roast in the refrigerator a couple of days ahead of time.

• Thoroughly rinse the roast& pat dry with paper towel.
• Generously salt& pepper the roast on all sides.
• Cover the bottom of a roasting pan with olive oil& set on medium-high heat about 4 minutes until very hot.
• Wearing a long sleeve shirt& oven gloves (so that you do not get splashed with hot oil), place roast into hot roasting pan& sear on all sides until nicely browned& about 1/2 cup of fat has rendered, which should take a total of about 6 to 8 minutes.
• Set a wire rack in another roasting pan,& then set the roast onto the rack.
• Pour water over the roast, making sure that it covers the bottom of the roasting pan,& then pour the wine over the roast.
• Cut the 6 cloves of garlic in half lengthwise& with a small knife cut small slits into the top of the roast& insert the garlic clove halves into the roast.
• Generously brush roast with Dijon mustard.
• Generously season again with salt& pepper,& then generously sprinkle the rest of the seasonings, including the au jus mix, evenly.
• Place roast, uncovered, in the middle of the oven that has been pre-heated to 325 degrees for 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours or until roast is almost done.
• If you desire it to be medium-rare, remove from oven when it is rare.
• If you desire it to be medium, remove from oven when it is medium-rare.
• After removing from oven, tent with aluminum foil.
• Allow to stand for 20 to 30 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute themselves evenly throughout the roast,& for the roast to complete its cooking to your desired doneness.
• Set the roast onto a cutting board& carve immediately& serve.
• Place all of the juices, including the 1/2 cup rendered from the initial searing process, into a gravy boat to serve as the au jus.
