Ingredients

The following ingredients have 9 Servings
  • 1 medium sirloin roast (ours was about 4 lbs)
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • ½ tbsp dried rosemary
  • 2 tbsp chopped horseradish
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • ½ tsp mustard (Dijon or basic yellow mustard)

Instruction

  • Make the rub by combining the garlic powder, salt and rosemary in a bowl.
  • Spread the rub over the beef, patting it into the meat. Let the beef sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to let the flavors absorb.
  • Place the spoon roast into a roasting pan, and then put it into a cold oven. Turn the oven up to 450 degrees (conventional setting), cook for 10 minutes after it has reached 450.
  • Lower the heat to 325 degrees. For medium rare, cook at that temperature 12 to 15 minutes for every pound of meat. In other words, for a 4 lb roast, the cooking time range will be 48 to 60 minutes after reducing the temperature. See notes for more information on cooking time and doneness.
  • Check for doneness toward the end of the projected cooking time. When almost done cooking to your taste, remove from oven. Tent loosely with foil to let it rest.
  • Make the cream by whipping the cream together with the horseradish and mustard.
  • Slice the beef thinly, then serve with the cream and a good red wine!!
