Ingredients
- The Meat: 3 lb. roast rump (Note: Must be labeled rump, not bottom round)
- Seasonings:
- 2 tsp Weber Steak ‘n Chop seasoning
- 2 tsp Weber Chicago Steak Seasoning (or your favorite blend)
- Aromatics & Oil:
- 3 cloves fresh garlic
- 1/8 cup olive or vegetable oil
Instructions
- Temper the Meat: Remove the roast from the refrigerator 30 minutes to 1 hour before cooking to take the chill off.
- Prep the Garlic: Peel and smash your garlic cloves to release their natural juices.
- Insert Flavor: Using a sharp knife, make 3 to 4 deep slits in the roast and insert the smashed garlic cloves into the meat.
- Season: Place your seasonings on a plate. Rub the entire roast with olive oil, then roll it in the seasonings until evenly coated.
- Set the Rack: Place the roast on a roasting rack, fat side up. (If you don't have one, a cooling rack on a foil-lined sheet pan works perfectly).
- The High-Heat Sear: Insert a digital meat thermometer into the center. Place the roast in a preheated 450°F oven for 25 minutes to create a beautiful brown crust.
- Slow Roast: Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F and continue cooking until your thermometer reaches your desired doneness:
- Medium: Remove at 150°F and let rest for 15 minutes.
- Medium-Well: Remove at 155°F and let rest for 20 minutes.
- Serve: Always carve the roast against the grain for the most tender slices.
Notes
Tammy’s Tip: Because the rump roast is such a high-quality cut, it stays juicy all on its own without needing extra liquid in the pan!
