Ingredients :

·         3.5- to 4-lb. boneless sirloin roast, rolled and tied (boneless roasts already rolled and tied are sold in many stores)* salt and pepper

·         3 tbsp. vegetable shortening

How To Make :

·         Preheat the oven to 350°F.

·         Sprinkle salt and pepper over roast. Place roast on a wire rack in an open roasting pan with the fat side on top. (In other words, roast should be resting on its edge, not lying flat.) Dot with shortening. Insert a meat thermometer into the center of the roast so that the top of the thermometer does not touch any fat.

·         Roast the beef on the middle rack of the oven for 2 hours or until the meat thermometer registers that roast is done. When beef is rare, the meat thermometer will show 130° to 140°F; when medium, 150° to 160°F; when well done, 160° to 170°F.
