Last night I took a 5 pound top round beef roast out of the freezer. This morning I brushed the roast generously with a mixture of Djon mustard and Worchestershire sauce. I will make 8 or 10 little cuts in the beef and insert a peeled clove of garlic in each one. The roast can sit in the fridge and absorb the flavours until about three hours before dinner. I will initially sear the roast at 450 degrees for half an hour and then turn the oven down to 325 degrees and cook for another two hours. I will make gravy with the pan juices and probably a couple cans of beef broth. The baron of beef roasts probably make the best beef sandwiches of any beef roast but tonight we'll have Yorkshire Pudding and all the trimmings. The rest of the roast will feed us over the weekend.
