THE PERFECT ROAST BEEF DONE TO MEDIUM RARE
Next, the roast is placed in a baking tray lined with foil and placed into a 500 degree F or 260 degrees C preheated oven for 5 minutes per pound. Do not use a glass container or baking tray as it will not withstand the heat. My roast was about 3.36 pounds, so I left it about 17 minutes or so. After about 17 minutes, the heat is turned off and the roast is left in the oven to bake for 15 minutes per pound. It is very "important not to open the oven door at all." In the case of this roast, I left it for 50 minutes, pulled it out, and allowed it to rest for an additional 15 minutes. During the cooking process, the meat does release juices which can be used to make a wonderful, delicious gravy. I know, the method sounds a bit odd and sounds somewhat frightening if not intimidating, but believe me, it works. You will end up with a superb medium rare roast of beef. If you want to increase the level of doneness to medium or well done, leave it a little longer such as 20 minutes for medium and longer for well done.

SHIRLEY'S PERFECT RARE ROAST BEEF
My mom showed me how to make the perfect roast beef, and I mean PERFECT! I love my roast beef rare to med-rare, and this is how I do it. IMPORTANT: Take your roast out of the fridge, and let it set to get it to room temperature before baking! If you like really rare bake for 15 mins. at 500. If you like your roast beef cooked med-rare, put in for 18 mins. at 500. If you like it well done, then just burn the darn thing LOL. What's nice about this roast is, if someone likes it done a little more, please keep in mind that the end pieces will be done a little more. ***(The roast in the series of photos that I took was a 2.75 lb. bottom of the round roast. I baked it at 500 for 15 mins., then turned the oven off and left it in the oven for 1 hour for a rare roast.) The cooking time is 5 minutes per pound but I couldn't reflect that in the cooking time in the TIME section for the recipe, at the bottom so I just put in 15-30 mins, depending on size of the roast you use (3-6 lb)

NEVER FAIL ROAST BEEF
I found this recipe online a year or so ago and I have only cooked roast beef this way since. The only time this method was disappointing was when the roast was too small, it turned out medium. The meat should be very brown and crispy on the outside and pink all the way through, juicy and medium rare. How many this serves depends on size of roast.

RARE ROAST BEEF
This recipe is very similar to one posted by Linda's Busy Kitchen on Food.com named "Shirleys Perfect Rare Roast Beef Recipe". This is the way my mom made rare roast beef, and apparently it is also the way Linda's mom made it, because the methods are virtually the same! We used to eat it with ketchup, but now I like it plain with...

Steps:
- 1. Bring your roast (chuck, rump, loin, whatever roast you prefer) to room temperature. Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Pat the roast dry. I actually "age" the roast for a day or two unwrapped in the refrigerator to dry the surface of the meat. Season roast if desired, but don't use salt - it draws the juices out and tends to dry the roast during cooking. So it's important to have a preheated oven, and the roast at room temperature, with a dry surface, and no salt. Line a shallow pan with sliced onions, if desired. Place the roast in the pan. Leave uncovered. Cook the roast at 500 degrees for 5 minutes per pound. For example, you would cook a 4 lb roast 20 minutes at 500 degrees. Do not open the oven. Turn the oven off and let the roast sit for an hour. Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for about 20 minutes. Slice thinly against the grain. Serve with horseradish or mustard, au jus, or just plain. Wonderful with onions and root vegetables such as parsnips, carrots, potatoes, and beets.
