Worcestershire Marinated Bottom Round Roast

Worcestershire marinated bottom round roast is a tender, flavor packed roast beef recipe. Marinating the beef for a longer period of time gives you a fall apart roast that makes a lovely centerpiece for a traditional Sunday dinner.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.

My family runs on meat and potatoes.

Feed them a good roast beef recipe with Worcestershire sauce flavor throughout and they are all happy.

And so am I!

It’s easy plus it uses a budget friendly cut of beef so I can satisfy their hearty appetites without going broke.

But you’d never know that bottom round roast is a less expensive, tougher cut of beef when you try it in this easy recipe!

Marinating it for a full 24 hours beautifully tenderizes the meat and infuses it with tons of flavor.

Ingredients

To make this you’ll need:

• Bottom round roast– About 3 pounds for this recipe. You could substitute another tough cut of beef like chuck roast.
• Worcestershire sauce– A lot of it! 2 whole cups.
• Seasonings– Dried thyme and dried rosemary.
• Olive oil

How to Make

This roast beef with Worcestershire sauce is so easy to make!

Just add the roast, the Worcestershire sauce and dried herbs to a large ziplocking bag.

Seal the bag and pop it in the fridge.

Every few hours turn the roast so the marinade gets distributed evenly.

Let it sit in the fridge for a full day.

An hour before cooking, remove the marinaded beef from the refrigerator to let it rest at room temperature.

Transfer the marinated beef to an oven safe dish or skillet.

Drizzle the olive oil evenly out overtop.

Bake the bottom round roast at 450° for 20 minutes, then reduce the heat to 350° and let the beef cook for another 35-40 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 111.° 

At this point, carefully remove the roast from the oven, and transfer it to a serving plate.

Tent it loosely with foil and let it rest for 20-30 minutes.

During this time, the beef will keep cooking from its residual heat and the internal temperature will rise to 125°.

Slice the beef and serve warm.

Enjoy!

Storing Leftovers

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Reheat in the oven or on the stovetop until warmed through.

Degree of Doneness

This recipe makes a rare to medium rare roast beef, which is our preference.

If you like your beef more done, cook it to 145 for medium or 150 for medium well.

Remember to pull out the roast 10 degrees below your desired doneness.

Then tent the roast and let it rest on the counter.

It will continue to cook as it sits.

Tips and Tricks

• For an easy one pan meal, roast the bottom round roast with root vegetables like potatoes and carrots and onions.
• Don’t worry if the the meat is the desired finished temperature when you pull it out of the oven. You can take the meat out about 10 degrees below the desired doneness temperature, cover it with foil and let it rest on the counter. The residual heat will continue cooking the meat as it rests.
• This is super delicious with a loaf of good crusty bread to soak up all the juices.
