(from greenfood’s recipe box)
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 120 minutes
Serves 10 people
Ingredients
- One 6-pound sirloin tip roast, preferably grass-fed, tied
- 1/2 cup prepared horseradish
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
- 1 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°. Set a rack in a large, deep roasting pan and place the beef roast on the rack.
-
In a small bowl, blend the horseradish with the salt, Dijon mustard, chopped parsley, ground pepper, sugar and sherry vinegar to form a paste. Slather the paste all over the top and sides of the meat. Roast in the lower third of the oven for about 2 hours, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of the roast registers 125°. Transfer the roast to a cutting board and let rest for at least 20 minutes.
-
Discard the string and thinly slice the roast beef across the grain. Transfer the meat to a platter and serve.
