Step 7

Reduce the heat to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Continue cooking the roast, checking the temperature of the roast after 20 minutes. The USDA states the safe internal temperature is 145 degrees Fahrenheit. A roast with this temperature will be medium-rare.

Tip

Cook the roast longer if you want medium or well-done meat. A medium roast has an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit. A well-done roast has an internal temperature of 170 degrees Fahrenheit. Let the roast sit for 15 minutes after you remove it from the oven. This will retain the juices and keep the inside moist. Cut the roast across the grain. The USDA states the best way to thaw beef is in the refrigerator. Thawed beef is safe for up to five days in the refrigerator.
