The best cuts for roasting beef and tips on how to cook it

What'due south the difference between cuts of beef?

Fore ribs

One of the prime roasting cuts considering the chief lean muscle is nicely marbled and the whole articulation is covered with a natural layer of fat. It is usually roasted on the os.

Topside, silverside and top rump

These 3 prime cuts are all fantastic for roasting, as they are very tender and can be carved into big lean slices. However, considering the muscles used for these cuts carry less marbling, they are usually sold 'barded'.

This means that thin sheets of fat, usually taken from the flank of the same animal, are wrapped around the outside of the rolled muscle and then tied in place with string to produce a dandy, cylindrical articulation.

  • Roast the beef at  a loftier temperature (240°C/fan 220°C/gas nine, or every bit high as your oven will go) for about 15 minutes to go the heat through to the eye of the articulation. Then reduce the temperature to 190°C/fan 170°C/gas 5 and proceed to roast for 12-13 minutes per 500g for rare, 17-18 minutes per 500g for medium, or 22-24 minutes per 500g for well done.
