Hi folks looking to maybe try some cheaper Beef cuts :
For RB and maybe steak sandwiches ?
Not looking to grind it or stew meat.
Rump roast very happy with is, along with bottom round.
Question :? how do these stack up? Thinking they are too lean and will be dry and tough?
Looking to slow roast or marinate and pan fry for Sammys ?
Eye round roast
Sirloin tip roasts and cut steaks?
Have not used any of these?
Any ideas please?
Thanks !
ELF
 
Of the cuts you have listed I have only messed with the eye round.
I like a whole eye round roast when I can find one. A half will or what they usually have in the grocery stores will work but cut side can get more well done than we like it. Roast it on the grill with your favorite dry rub until you have a nice internal temperature you like, 130 for me. Maybe around 350 but it’s been awhile and my memory is not what it used to be. Pull it and let it rest for 10-20 minutes. This is when a meat slicer comes in handy and slice it to your liking. We like it as thin as possible. I have also cooked the eye round on the counter top rotisserie (set it and forget it guy) with some success, just don’t like the holes it leaves in the meat.
