Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 sirloin tip roast about 3 to 4 pounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 onion sliced into thick rings

Method
 

  1. Remove the sirloin tip roast from the refrigerator 30 to 45 minutes before cooking so it can lose some chill for more even roasting.
  2. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  3. Pat the roast dry with paper towels.
  4. Rub the roast with olive oil on all sides.
  5. Season all sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, rosemary, and thyme.
  6. Place the roast on a rack in a roasting pan, or set it in a baking dish with the onion underneath.
  7. Roast at 450°F for 15 minutes to build a browned crust.
  8. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F and continue cooking until the roast reaches your preferred internal temperature, about 1 hour 30 minutes total cook time.
  9. For medium-rare, remove the roast at 130 to 135°F.
  10. For medium, remove the roast at 140 to 145°F.
  11. Tent the roast loosely with foil and let it rest for 15 to 20 minutes before slicing.
  12. Slice thinly against the grain and serve warm with the pan juices.

Notes

Use a meat thermometer for the best results, because sirloin tip roast can turn dry if it cooks past your target temperature.
Let the roast rest for 15 to 20 minutes before slicing so the juices can redistribute.
Slice the beef against the grain to help keep each piece more tender.
Start the roast at a higher temperature to build a flavorful crust, then lower the heat to finish cooking more gently.
Cooking time can vary based on roast size and oven performance, so rely on internal temperature more than minutes alone.
Medium-rare is usually the best doneness for a juicy sirloin tip roast.
You can place onion under the roast or in the pan to add flavor while it cooks.
