Timing is everything! To ensure the tastiest results for your Certified Angus Beef® brand roast, follow these suggested cooking times. Cook time is based on the weight of each roast and desired doneness.
We suggest planning 30 additional minutes. Approximately 15 minutes for searing the roast at 450 °F prior to roasting and approximately 15 minutes for the roast to rest before serving. The perfect temperature to roast at (after searing) is 325 °F. Refer to the Roast Perfect App for specific times for your roast cut.
