How to Cook a Sirloin Tip Roast

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F—heat olive oil in a large Dutch Oven over medium-high heat.
  2. Sear the roast for 2 minutes on each side to brown, then remove and set aside.

  3. Without cleaning the pot, add the onion and cook, stirring constantly for 3 minutes or until translucent. Add garlic and stir for another 2 minutes.
    Sirloin Tip Roast Recipe (4)
  4. Deglaze the pan by adding red wine, and use a wooden spoon to gently scrape the bottom of the pan to release the browned bits for flavor.
  5. Add in beef stock, carrots, thyme, rosemary, Worcestershire sauce, and salt and pepper, while stirring.
  6. Finally, add the roast back to the Dutch Oven, covering it with the liquid. Place in the oven and roast for 3 hours, or until beef is tender enough to shred with a fork.

  7. Remove the beef from the pot and let it rest on a cutting board for 10-15 minutes. After resting, shred the beef using two forks. You will have a fall-apart beef tip roast quickly.
  8. Place the Dutch Oven back on the stove and bring the remaining liquid to a low boil, uncovered, to reduce the liquid. If you find it is not reducing or prefer a thicker gravy, take ½ Tablespoon cornstarch and mix it with 2 Tablespoons beef stock in a small cup. Pour the mixture into the pot and stir it to thicken the gravy.
  9. Enjoy the beef on creamy mashed potatoes or noodles with the sauce!

Beef Sirloin Tip Roast Oven Tips

  • If possible, use a heavy cast-iron Dutch oven with a lid. A good roasting pan will also work if you don’t have one.
  • Sear your meat first over high heat to start the browning process. This will seal in the juices and guarantee a juicy pot roast.
  • Use a good beef stock and check the liquid level every hour. Add ½ cup water if it’s reduced too much and drying out.
  • Although I only used carrots and onions, you can use any of your favorite roast vegetables in this recipe.

Slow Cooker Spoon Roast

If you don’t have a Dutch oven or prefer to make this recipe in the slow cooker, you can! Follow these instructions for slow cooker sirloin tip roast:

  1. Follow the instructions to sear the beef and saute the onions and garlic for best results. Set the meat aside after searing, then deglaze the pan with red wine, using a wooden spoon to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  2. While stirring, add beef stock, thyme, rosemary, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
  3. Place the carrots in the slow cooker, then add the beef.
  4. Pour the contents of the pot into the slow cooker over the beef so it is submerged in liquid.
  5. Slow cook on LOW for 8-12 hours. This is an excellent option for cooking fall-apart sirloin tip roast overnight so it’s ready the next day or sitting in the morning to have it ready by dinnertime!

Note: If you don’t want to sear the beef or saute the onions beforehand, skip step 3. Place the carrots, garlic, and onions into the slow cooker, then the beef, then the liquid and seasoning ingredients. Cook as instructed. However, I recommend searing as it adds so much flavor.

Storing Sirloin Tip Roast Recipe

  1. If you plan to use it within a few days, keep it in an airtight container or sealed bag in the fridge.
  2. If you want to store it for longer, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or foil, place it in a freezer bag, and label it with the freezing date.
  3. Freeze it for up to 4 months.
  4. Thaw it in the fridge for several hours or overnight before reheating.

Reheating Sirloin Roast Recipe

  1. Preheat your oven to 250°F.
  2. Place the sirloin tip roast in an oven-safe dish and cover it loosely with foil.
  3. Reheat for about 20-30 minutes per pound until it reaches your desired internal temperature.
  4. Let it rest for a few minutes, slice, and serve.

Sirloin Tip Roast FAQ

What is a Spoon Roast?

A spoon roast is a culinary term used to refer to a specific cut of beef, often known as the “top sirloin roast” or “sirloin tip roast.” This cut is taken from the sirloin section of the cow and is known for its tenderness and flavor. It’s called a “spoon roast” because it’s traditionally shaped in a way that resembles the curve of a spoon.

How to Cook Fall Apart Sirloin Tip Roast?

Cooking this roast low and slow is key! Slow cook on LOW for 8-12 hours. It will be amazing.

Can the leftovers be frozen?

You can freeze the leftovers by first allowing them to cool completely, then adding them to a freezer-safe airtight container or freezer bag. Freeze for up to 4 months, labeled with the date. To reheat, allow the beef to thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then gently roast in an oven-safe dish at 250°F until heated through.

What kind of wine is best for cooking roast beef?

Dry red wine is the best, so use that if you can. If you’d rather not use red wine at all, you can use red wine vinegar, extra beef stock, or even chicken stock. Red wine is perfect for deglazing your pan and cooking gravy, but any of these alternatives will work.

This might be one of the most tender roasts I’ve ever made! I’m always on the lookout for good Dutch oven recipes and this one was right up my alley.

    Sirloin Tip Roast Recipe (16)
    Thank you x 10! Really hate to alter a recipe first time and I would NOT if I had all the ingredients. Didn’t have any red wine so added 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar and 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar…Can’t say if it made a positive or negative difference. OK I trippled the carrots but wowza…this is a keeper!!!! 2 days later put remainder in soup pot, put in left over mashed potatoes, 2 cups of water and the soup was also a killer.
    Thank you!!!!
