Is is normal for roast beef to be green?
From the USDA...
Iridescent Color of Roast Beef:
Sliced cooked beef or lunch meat can have an iridescent color. Meat contains iron, fat, and many other compounds. When light hits a slice of meat, it splits into colors like a rainbow. There are also various pigments in meat compounds which can give it an iridescent or greenish cast when exposed to heat and processing. Iridescent beef isn't spoiled necessarily. Spoiled cooked beef would probably also be slimy or sticky and have an off-odor.
How much roast beef per person?
The standard serving suggestion is 4 oz per person. 1.5 lbs will yield six servings.
How much roast beef is needed for 60 people?
For hungry people as a main course, I would plan on a half pound per person. That would be 20 pounds for forty people. You could use less if there are other meats also being served, or if it is for an appetizer, etc. Don't be afraid to have leftover roast beef! You can slice it thin to be served cold in a sandwich or on a salad. You can cut the leftover roast into cubes to be used in beef stew or beef vegetable soup. Freeze them in a freezer bag until you are ready. My favorite roast is a rump roast. Sprinkle all sides with salt and pepper, put it on a rack in a roasting pan in a 325 degree oven until done to your liking.
How long does it take to cook a 15 lb beef roast at 250 degrees in a barbecue pit?
Internal temp = 130°F to 140°F (55°C to 60°C) for medium rare.
About 15-20 min/lb at 275 - 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
Your cook time (15 lb at 250*F) will be about 5.5 hr, depending upon starting internal temp of the beef (bring it up to nearly room temp and you shorten your cook time)
How long does a four pound eye round roast need to cook using a slow cooker?
Slow cookers are designed to cook all day while you are doing something else. Normally, anything that fits in the container will take about 8 to 12 hours to cook on low. (If your cooker has a "high" setting, then probably 4 to 6 hours.) Overcooking is not a major concern, because of the low temperatures used and the type of recipes used in slow cooking. If you want to roast your beef until it is rare or medium rare, a slow cooker is not the best choice.
They can but might be hard to get them to. They only want things that are alive.
Can you cook a frozen rib eye roast in a slow cooker?
Absolutely. Add water, cover, and it'll be ready in about 4 hours if you cook it on "high".
Yes. And they all died of lead poisoning.

How do you cook a pikes peak roast?
Pikes Peak rhoast is the heel of the round. It is somewhat tough but good if braised. Brown the roast and cook slowly with some liquid like a pot roast. When cooked slowly for a long period of time it can be tender and very tasty.
We always apply salt, pepper, etc., then pat with flour, brown in hot grease in cast iron skillet then put in pan lined with enough foil to wrap over the top of the roast (like you do turkey or chicken).
Put in the oven about 325-350 degrees. Cooking time depends on size (ours is usually about 5lbs ... think takes about 2 hrs). You can use meat thermometer to test when about half done, then can add fresh potatoes, carrots, more onion, celery (whatever pan will hold). Finish cooking, remove from oven, carefully open foil (steam vapors will burn), let sit few minutes. Remove either veg or roast (whichever is easier), slice and eat!
While raw, it's also good to cut up into small pieces and use for stew meat or beef tips and noodles/rice (whatever you like).
What is the minimum cooking time and temperature for a rare roast beef?
That will depend on the weight of the joint AND its shape and the oven temperature.
As a rule of thumb
- Take your beef out of the fridge 30 minutes before it goes into the oven.
- Preheat your oven to 240°C/475°F/ gas 9
- Place the beef in this oven, uncovered for 15 mins.
- After 15 mins. turn the oven down to 180°C/356°F (160°C/320°F fan assisted)/ gas mark 4).
- Now let it cook for a further 25 minutes per kilo (11 minutes per 450g/1 lb).
Obviously if your joint is thin, then the heat will penetrate faster so you will need to reduce your timings.
--------------------------------------------
The amount of time it takes to cook a roast beef varies greatly, depending on the size of the roast. The most important rule to remember when cooking beef is to make sure to cook it until an instant read thermometer reads an internal temperature of at least 160ºFahrenheit. A three pound, boned roast should take about one and a half hours, or slightly longer, in a 350º Fahrenheit oven.
The best thing for you to do is to pick up a meat thermometer. If possible, try it out once or twice before a critical meal to make sure you know how to read it accurately.
Are a standing rib roast and a cross rib roast the same thing?
No, a standing rib roast, also known as prime rib, is a much better cut of meat and comes from an area just to the rear of the cross rib roast, also known as English roast. The cross rib roast is from the cut of beef known as "chuck", which is from the top of the forelimb, near where it meets the shoulder blades. The standing rib roast comes from the area of the ribs where they meet the rib cage (above the area of the rib cage where the "short plate" cut is). They really are not the same, and do not cook the same way. The cross rib roast is best braised, whereas the standing rib roast is best roasted. You should see a difference in the price, with cross rib roast being less expensive than standing rib roast.
Edgar allan poe tale with a murder weapon of roast beef?
I think I know what you're talking about, and it's not a Poe story, it's a Roald Dahl story, and it's not a roast beef, it's a leg of lamb. It's called "Lamb to the Slaughter." A lady murders her husband with a frozen leg of lamb, then cooks it up and serves it to the police when they arrive. It's published in a collection of short stories of Dahl's, called Tales of the Unexpected.There was also a TV show by the same name, and that story was the first episode of it.
How do you cook a two pound bottom round roast so it is not tough?
The easiest way is to put it in a crock pot, cover it with water, put your seasonings in (garlic, salt, pepper) and turn the crock pot on low and allow it to cook overnight. It will come out tender and you can use the water left to make some gravy. Word to the wise, take it easy on the salt. Once in you can't take it out.

What type of meat does rib roast contain?
The most common meat that rib roast contains is beef. However, sometimes is is substituted with other kinds of meat to make it cheaper but it also then might not taste as good.
Is it safe to eat cooked ham and roast beef that was left out of the fridge all night?
No. It is not safe to eat meat that was left out all night. Unless it was 40°F where the meat was left. Potentially hazardous food should not be left at room temperature for more than 2 hours. Less time is better.
People constantly ask for some type of verification that the food they eat will not make them ill. That is nearly impossible to do without bacteriological and chemical tests, so all we can do is provide guidelines, like:
* Handle food in a sanitary manner (wash hands, clean & sanitize food-contact surfaces, protect from cross-contamination, package & store properly) * Keep potentially hazardous food either hot or cold and cook and reheat thoroughly, and * Use it within a reasonable time. In the end, you are responsible for what you feed yourself and your family. This adage has truth to it: When in doubt, throw it out.
