romeacademy Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 I have a couple of rolled rump roasts and sirloin tip roasts in my freeze. They're about the only things left from our last side of beef, and they're still sitting there because I really don't know what to do with them. We're getting another quarter in a couple of weeks and now that it's cooled off and I'm willing to think about using the oven again I'd like to use them up. I know there are great ideas out there.

Oops, duplicate account :/ Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Our favorite way to use a roast is to put it in the crockpot with lots of mexican spices (green chilies, onions, cumin, chili powder, etc) and let it cook till it's falling apart to make enchiladas with.

romeacademy Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 I do chuck roasts in the crock pot a lot, but will a rump roast fall apart? Maybe I haven't cooked it long enough when I've tried before? Or do I need to untie it and cut it up before cooking it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dobela Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 I do chuck roasts in the crock pot a lot, but will a rump roast fall apart? Maybe I haven't cooked it long enough when I've tried before? Or do I need to untie it and cut it up before cooking it? A crock pot is the only way I have ever cooked a roast. I put mine in the crock pot early in the morning, add a touch of liquid, whatever spcies or marinades I want, and by dinner about 10 hours later even the toughest roast is falling apart. I would think that if you untie yours it would cook faster than it would tied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I have one that doesn't fall apart (probably the type) so I just shred it with a fork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
