Outstanding roast! Cooked to perfection! This is a keeper! I made it as writtren with the exception of adding worchestershire sauce to the meat prior to roasting. I have been making it this way for almost 40 years! So good...EVERY TIME! I

good flavor, but tough as shoe leather. I left it on 400 for an hour instead of 20 minutes, which I'm sure had a little to do with it, but I don't believe it would have made that huge of a difference.

It was an easy recipe and a great way to cook an expensive cut of beef. Thank you to the reviewer who reminded us that dry cooking is for the expensive meat and crock pots are for the less expensive. I have been confused about that.

This method made my roast very flavourful. After I thought it was "done" my boyfriend wanted it done a bit more since it was still pretty red in the middle. I put it in for another 15 minutes and it was completely brown in the middle. It was firm, and slightly overcooked, but I attribute that to the cut itself. It may have been freezerburned. But regardless of all that, it was still very tasty because of the garlic cloves and salt and pepper. Had it with mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli. And it was just as good the next day. Anyone who complains about this recipe needs to get their head checked--beef can be pretty temperamental to cook. Great recipe, and thanks for sharing!

This was a very easy recipe to follow and I would recommend it if you're looking for a tender sirloin tip roast. I did add worchestire sauce as another reviewer suggested and it did add some flavor. I would add some salt to the recipe too. My husband and children really liked it and kept asking for more! I will definitely use this recipe again.

What is with everybody taking a good piece of meat and making it into a pot roast? if you want moist heat (like using a crockpot) use a cheap cut, and it will turn out great. If you're using a nice cut, use the dry method without adding water or you're wrecking all the qualities you're paying extra for!!!

very good recipe. Haven't had a tip roast come out this tender in years. will make over and over again. The time was too long if you like med-rare like we do. will cut done on time next time and use a little less garlic.

Very good. If you don't need to feed 6 people, remember you can ask the butcher to cut you a smaller piece. The 3.25 lb. piece I bought was $14, and my family of 2 adults, 3 elementary aged kids, will not be able to eat it all. Excellent and simple.
