The Cut

A Top Round Roast, also known simply as "top round," is a cut of beef that comes from the rear leg of the cow. It is a relatively lean cut and is part of the round primal cut, which is known for its toughness compared to more tender cuts like the loin or rib. Despite its lean nature, top round roast can be flavorful and, when cooked properly, can be quite tender.

The Preparation:

Best suited for slow roasting, braising, or cooking in a slow cooker to ensure tenderness. It can also be thinly sliced for stir-fries or used for roast beef sandwiches. Cook low and slow to break down the connective tissues and achieve a tender texture.
