Questions and answers

Is eye of round a good cut for roasting?
Yes, if you roast it low and slow to medium-rare and slice it thin against the grain. Cooked past medium it gets dry and chewy.
How should I cook this roast?
Sous vide at 131 to 135°F for 18 to 24 hours gives the most tender result. For oven roasting, use a low temperature and pull it at 125 to 130°F, then rest it.
How many people does a 3-pound roast serve?
About 6 to 8 servings at 6 ounces each, or fewer if you want leftovers. The weight is approximate, so check the piece you receive.
Is this roast good for roast beef sandwiches?
Yes. Chill it after cooking and slice it very thin against the grain for deli-style roast beef.
Is eye of round leaner than other roasts?
Yes. It is one of the leanest beef cuts, with very little marbling compared with chuck or prime rib.
