Butcher here. Long, roughly circular roast, very lean with a cap of fat on top - looks like Eye of Round.

Maybe this bigger picture helps to identify:

Looks like it might be a top round. Excellent cut for a nice slow roast and you got a great cook on it.

[–] MaungaHikoi@lemmy.nz 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah some kind of topside roast I reckon. Cuts are different in the USA so probably not what we have in my country.

[–] robmexx@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It wasn’t fillet. Unfortunately I can’t remember what cut it was. Wife got the meat and I literally had to google how to cook it, lol.

[–] Che_Donkey@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Looks to me like eye of round (redondo). When done right, like this, its flavor and consistency are excellent. Once you get the formula down don't f with it. I use high heat for x minutes per kg, then drop it down to very low heat for 10 minutes, pull, cover with foil & towel & rest until ready.

Eye of round has little fat cap & hardly any marbling, so over cooking will dry it out, undercooking will make it tough & chewey.

You're not a chef by trade?

[–] robmexx@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Unfortunately i’m not even close. I’m an electrician.

If there exists an ideal food, perfect beyond measure, this would be it.

[–] robmexx@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Too kind. Thank you

[–] James@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sear before or after cooking?

[–] robmexx@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

After, then into tinfoil for about 10 minutes

[–] FrankLaskey@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Holy moly that is the perfect doneness / color of beef. chef’s kiss

[–] robmexx@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it was fantastic

[–] ImFresh3x@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

I’d eat this

[–] Moonguide@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Havent ever had roast beef (I think), what was your process. How did you achieve medium with 4h of cook time?

[–] robmexx@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Basically I did nothing but throwing it in the oven with pretty low temperature (about 70°C) until the meat was medium (around 65°C core temp). After that, searing and putting in tinfoil for another few minutes. All that keeps the meat super soft and very tasty.

[–] robmexx@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

You’re welcome

[–] MementoMori@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Great job! Looks amazing. Did you eat any of it cold?

[–] robmexx@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Unfortunately there was nothing left. The family really enjoyed the meal. I had cold Roastbeef already but not my own.

[–] MementoMori@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

That's a champagne problem right there. Good for you!
