Perfect Mustard Roast

EASTER ROAST 😍

Happy Easter!
Nothing says Easter quite like a beautiful roast sitting in the middle of your table 😍 this one tenderizes a budget cut by using mustard (Hazlett family secret) so it doesn’t break the bank when cooking for a crowd and only takes 10 minutes to prep! Which means more time spent with friends and family❤️ 🎉 (plus it’s @whole 30 approved, so family gatherings don’t have to mean breaking your diet).



Ingredients:

For the Mustard Roast:

  • 1 (2-3 lb) rump roast (you can also use eye of round as another cheap cut)

  • ½ lb back of fingerling or yellow and red potatoes

  • 4 cloves minced garlic

  • 2 sprigs chopped rosemary

  • 2 tbsps olive oil

  • ½ cup French’s yellow mustard

  • Salt and pepper to taste


Directions:

For the Mustard Roast:

  • Cut your potatoes into 1” chunks and place into the bottom of a roasting pan olive oil, garlic, rosemary, and salt and pepper.

  • Place a roasting rack on top for your meat (if you don’t have a roasting rack, cut 2 heads of garlic in half horizontally and use those to bake the roast on).

  • Pat your roast dry and season all over with salt and pepper.

  • Brush the roast all over with mustard until fully covered.

  • Place the roast on your rack and bake at 450 with the fat side up for 20 minutes.

  • Then reduce your temperature to 300 for another 20 minutes (if you have a larger roast, add more time here. Rump roasts typically take around 20 minutes per pound.

  • The most foolproof way to tell if it’s done is to use an instant thermometer (mine is from amazon for like $5) and bake until the internal temp reaches 125 degrees. It will then increase to 130 while your roast is resting which is a medium rare. The key to this roast is to not overcook it as it can get tough!

  • Rest your steak for about 10 minutes before slicing and slice into medium thin slices.
