Ideal cooking time for my pot roast please?
Hi I'm trying to do the Perfect pot roast tonight. Its a SIRLOIN TIP roast, and I'm cooking on stove top, under low heat for a few hours I would think. (I dont have a crock pot or slow cooker)
How long should this roast be simmered for..its 1.5 KG approximately, or 3 pounds.
Answers:
You are on the right track, it needs to be first seared to seal in the juices and flavor, then slow moist cooked on top the stove for about 3 to 3 1/2 hrs. for 3 lbs. You might want to add onions, bay leaf and either wine or beef broth instead of water. I also usually cook some carrots and small whole potatoes with the roast.
