Sous Vide Eye of Round Roast Beef
from ButterYum
makes one 3 to 5-pound roast
INGREDIENTS
3 to 5 pound eye of round beef roast
2 teaspoons kosher salt (or half fine table salt)
freshly ground pepper
oil for searing
DIRECTIONS
(24 hours ahead) Dry roast well with paper towels and sprinkle kosher salt evenly all over; place roast in a gallon-size sous vide bag, vacuum sealer bag, or freezer bag and squeeze out as much air as possible..
Place bag in water-filled sous vide container; use a binder clip to anchor the bag so it doesn’t interfere with the circulating water.
Set sous vide circulator to your desired finished temperature (see chart above) for 22-24 hours (cover container with lid or plastic wrap to keep water from evaporating; adding more water if/when necessary).
Remove roast from bag and dry well; sear all sides (2-3 minutes per side) in a hot skillet with a tablespoon of oil. Slice and serve immediately.
