This is a raw product that must be cooked. Store below 3°C.

TIPS:
Bring it to room temperature: Take the beef out of the fridge at least an hour before roasting to allow it to come to room temperature. For big joints we recommend bringing to temperature for several hours. This helps for even cooking.

Season generously: Season the beef generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices to your liking. When cooking beef with herbs, focus on ‘hard herbs’ that don’t burn: rosemary, thyme, sage, oregano, bay leaves.

Resting period: Once the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness, let it rest for at least 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat. The longer you rest it the better, up to about 45 minutes. Don’t worry it won’t go cold in a warm kitchen.

COOKING:
Cooking times may vary depending on your oven.

4. Place the roast on a rack in a roasting tin and roast at 220°C for 20 minutes to develop a golden crust.
