How to Grill a Brown Sugar Rump Roast:

TEMPERATURE FOR ROAST BEEF:

  • 125° Rare
  • 135° Medium Rare
  • 145° Medium
  • 155° Medium Well
  • 165° Well Done

How Long to Cook a Rump Roast:

We generally cook our roasts around 300° and figure about 3o minutes per pound. 

Roast can be sliced and served immediately. To get deli thin slices, wrap rump roast in several layers of plastic wrap and one layer of foil. Refrigerate over night. 

Use a sharp knife or meat slicer for the thinnest slices. 

I prefer to slice as needed for the roast to stay the freshest tasting but you can wrap slices tightly in several layers of plastic wrap and store in refrigerator up to 4 days.
