COOKING TIPS
In the kitchen.
- 1The beef tip round is a lean cut; to ensure tenderness, cook it using a low and slow roasting method or braising. Avoid overcooking past medium (145°F / 63°C).
- 2Always let the roast rest for at least 10-15 minutes after removing it from the heat. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful bite.
- 3For maximum tenderness, slice the roast thinly against the grain. This shortens the muscle fibers, making the meat easier to chew.
- 4Marinating the roast for several hours before cooking can help to tenderize the meat and add flavor.
STORAGE
Keep it fresh.
- Store leftover roasted beef in an airtight container in the refrigerator at or below 40°F (4°C) and consume within 3-4 days.
- For longer storage, wrap the beef tightly in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil, or use a vacuum-sealed bag, and freeze at 0°F (-18°C) for up to 3 months for best quality.
