Perfect for all occasions!
Roast beef like this juicy sirloin tip roast is a classic meal that’s perfect for any special occasion like Sunday supper and family get togethers (or any weeknight too). It’s also a really delicious alternative to turkey for holiday dinners like Christmas! Honestly, the side dishes that go along with roast beef are some of my most favourite…popovers, mashed potatoes and gravy, dinner rolls, creamy cauliflower + broccoli, Caesar salad, YUM.
First roast at a high temp of 425 degrees F for 15 minutes, then turn down the oven to 325 F and cook for 45 minutes.
Roast with these yummy butter garlic potatoes. So good.
Sirloin Tip Roast Recipe Tips
- BEEF: This recipe is for a sirloin tip roast. It is a flavourful but lean cut of beef.
- ABOUT THIS RECIPE: This recipe is for a 2.5 lb sirloin tip roast with a roasting time of 1 hour for a MEDIUM RARE roast (internal temp of 130 -140 degrees F). For MEDIUM doneness cook for about 1 hour 15 minutes (or 1 hour 30 minutes).
- LARGER SIZE BEEF: If you have a larger roast, the cook times will be longer.
- 3 – 4 lbs Medium Rare: 1-3/4 to 2 hours
- 3 – 4 lbs Medium: 2 to 2-1/4 hours
- 4 – 6 lbs Medium Rare: 2 to 2-1/4 hours
- 4 – 6 lbs Medium: 2-1/4 to 2-3/4 hours
- 6 – 8 lbs Medium Rare: 2-1/4 to 2-3/4 hours
- 6 – 8 lbs Medium: 2-3/4 to 3-1/4 hours
- MEASURE THE TEMPERATURE: Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness.
- Medium Rare internal temp 130 -140 degrees F
- Medium 145 degrees F
- Well Done 160 degrees F
- POTATOES: I always like to use yellow potatoes. You can also use red potatoes, baby potatoes or any of your favourite varieties.
- LET IT REST! Make sure to let the meat rest for 15 minutes (covered in foil) before carving and serving.
- LEFTOVERS: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Add them to sandwiches or soups or make a beef pot pie. These sliders are particularly delicious (substitute the prime rib with the sirloin tip). Or have beef dip with au jus.
Have pan drippings (or not)?
Make gravy! Yes, with or without pan drippings you can make gravy. Just follow my easy gravy recipe here and use any pan drippings that you have in the recipe in place of the consommé or beef stock.
