When Iβm wanting a medium rare roast and when a cut needs a little tenderizing, my always go to method is Hot & High then Low & Slow. Itβs a winner every time.
This cut has a sinew seam that runs through it, but is very easy to eat around it after slicing.

Recipe Note
You could easily adjust your seasonings and switch up the flavored butter for a different flavor profile. It is the technique that is important to follow. Shop all of our roasts here.
Hi Karla. Thank you so much for sharing the buffaLoVe! All ovens are a bit different⦠I do not have a solid answer for you, but I would follow the directions as is and modify thereafter if needed. Thanks again!
A friend of mine hadnβt eaten red meat in 50-odd years. He tried the Wild Idea roast I had cooked with your recipe and wants to make it a regular part of his diet.
My question: I have an ancient gas oven that takes almost an hour to reach 500 degrees. The roast comes out beautifully and perfectly rare after I roast it according to your directions. Is there a difference in cooking time between a gas oven and an electric one? His oven takes a very long time to cool off. Thank you for your advice β and for this great recipe!
I had to share my plansβ¦ Iβm putting my English roast in my small convection oven β¦ heating g fir 7 minutes, and wrapping up my oven driving down the road 2 hours to my Cree Indian teacherβ¦ WAHLAA cooked and ready roast!
Iβll let you know hiw this turns out!β¦ I have a good feeling m! Oh and mashed potatoes in the instapot, easy still hot with pressure still on upon departure!.
Mary β My oven too has a fan β it has not been an issue. I would follow the instructions or you could unplug your oven. Good luck. jill
For the English Roast recipe: My oven has a fan that runs until the oven is cool to protect the electronics. Iβm afraid it wonβt retain enough heat to finish cooking the roast. I might try turning it down to 150 instead of off. Do you think that might work?
