Top Round Roast

Store raw roast in its original packaging or tightly wrapped. Cooked roast should be stored in an airtight container.

Top round benefits from slow cooking methods like braising or roasting at a low temperature to help tenderize the meat.

Marinating the roast before cooking can add flavor and moisture.

Slice thinly against the grain for the most tender texture, especially if not slow-cooked.

Root vegetables (carrots, potatoes, parsnips)

Onions and garlic

Beef broth or red wine for braising

Mashed potatoes

Horseradish sauce

Cooking at too high a temperature, which can result in a dry, tough roast.

Slicing with the grain, making the meat harder to chew.
