Roast Beef Cooking Chart

These cooking times are based on roasts chilled at refrigerator temperature, if the roast has been sitting at room temperature before being placed in the oven, time will need to be lowered/adjusted.

Internal Temperatures

These are just general guidelines, if you have a recipe advising a different temperature and length of time to cook the roast, follow the recipe. Looking for a new way to serve a roast? Make sure to check out these Mouth-Watering Roast Beef Recipes.

Tips

• Preheat oven to correct temperature before placing roast in oven.
• Remove roast from oven when the internal temperature is about 10°F lower than what you want and allow the roast to sit for about 15 minutes before carving. This will make the roast juicier, the internal temperature will still rise as the roast is sitting on the counter.
• To measure internal temperature, insert a meat thermometer in the thickest part of the roast (without touching the bone, if any).
• For best results, roast meat on a rack inside a shallow pan, uncovered. This will roast the meat evenly and keep the meat out of any juices as it cooks.
• Cook roast with the fat side up, this will baste the meat as it cooks.
