So many beef roast recipes I read call for envelopes. Instant gravy and onion soup. Nothing against those, but why do we need to rely on envelopes? Real ingredients yield clean and yummy flavors. You have to cook a beef roast like sirloin tip forever to make it tender. This cut of beef is from the rump/hind legs of a cow and therefore is very lean. Which is great if you are looking to eat less saturated fat and ultimately less calories. But if you’re going to cook something for so long, don’t you want it to be flavored more naturally? This Slow Cooker Sirloin Tip Roast tastes and looks amazing. And it doesn’t require any stove top cooking before putting it all into the Crockpot.

What is sirloin tip best used for?

Although its name suggests otherwise, this cut comes from the Round primal, and is found on the front end of the rear leg. Often fabricated into roasts, which are great when braised, but can also be cut into steaks or used for Ground Beef.

Is sirloin tip a good cut of roast?

Sirloin tip roast is almost always a great choice, as it's budget-friendly and so tender when you braise it. I love this inexpensive cut of beef for making roast beef recipes! My second choice is almost always English roast in Dutch Oven recipes like this one.

What is the difference between a sirloin roast and a sirloin tip roast?

What's the difference? Well, they are both boneless, despite their names. The top sirloin comes from the sirloin of the beef and is more tender. The sirloin tip, however, comes from the round and is a little tougher and leaner in its marbling.

How do you tenderize a sirloin tip roast?

Place the meat onto a baking pan and cook for one hour. Open the oven every 10 minutes and use a turkey baster to cover the roast with 1/4 cup of heated beef broth to tenderize the meat further.
