How do you you cook a very large sirloin roast and make it delicious?

My first instinct is to put it in a crock pot if you have one large enough. I used to be really against them until I started using one very recently and have just been amazed with the unmatchable tenderness. You could cut it into steaks if you're not set on doing the whole thing as a roast. Grilling adds great flavor if you live in a warmer climate or have a garage if it's snowing where you are. If you're going to do it in the oven, do it at 325 and cook it longer rather than trying a higher temp for a shorter period. If you want rare cuts then keep an eye on it and get a meat thermometer to make sure you don't over cook it. If you want the whole thing well done, just keep the temp low and it will fall apart.

Marinade this bad boy for at least a day or maybe three to get great flavor. Beer, sage and garlic would be a great marinade. Or if you want to go classy try a cheap (maybe one of those new little boxes they sell by the register) Merlot with garlic cloves and rosemary. Another good one is Yukon jack, honey and soy sauce. If you're against cooking with alcohol try thinning out a good bbq sauce with pineapple juice and adding garlic and cumin and using that as a marinade. Whatever you do just remember not to cook it too fast and it will hold all of that great flavor and turn out just perfect.

If you start with 1 lb raw meat and cook it how much will you have?

The amount yielded will depend upon the fat and water content of the raw meat. Leaner meats will give more yield. During cooking, heat causes protein molecules to break down and muscle fibers will shrink and shorten, pushing water out. At the same time, fat melts in the cooking heat, although some will be retained in the meat. Eventually the protein molecules recombine and coagulate. This process is known as denaturing. The yield varies widely between meat species and even within a species, based on diet.
