Ball tip roasts are boneless beef roasts cut from the hip bone area of the bottom sirloin. These roasts are a middle-of-the-road cut of beef that provides lots of flavor without a hefty price tag. Ball tip roasts may also be sold as petite sirloin roast or sirloin roast. This cut of meat is lean, with just enough marbling to keep it juicy while it cooks.Â
Ball tip roast cooking tips
Ball tip roasts are delicious when slowly cooked over low heat. To get the most flavor from your ball tip roast, season it the day before you plan on using it. Seasoning them the day before cooking allows spices to penetrate the meat rather than just sitting on the surface. Spices that work well with beef include cumin, chiles, rosemary, kosher salt, cracked black pepper, oregano, garlic, and onion. You can also push whole garlic cloves into the meat for extra flavor.Â
If needed, tie your roast up with kitchen twine. Tying your roast will hold it together as it cooks and makes for a prettier dish on the table. Take your seasoned ball tip roast out of the refrigerator 30-60 minutes before you are ready to cook it. Room temperature roasts get a better sear than cold roasts.

No matter which cooking method you use, always slice your ball tip roast thinly across the grain.

FAQs about ball tip roasts
There are two main reasons for resting meat before carving.
To rest your ball tip roast, transfer it to a cutting board and tent it with aluminum foil to keep it warm. Allow your roast to rest for 15 to 20 minutes before carving.
When carving a ball tip roast, always use a sharp carving knife. Use the back of a meat fork or a pair of tongs to hold the roast as you carve it. Don't pierce the meat while you carve, as this will cause the juices to run out on your carving board.
Ball tip roasts pair well with roasted or mashed potatoes, green vegetables, and crusty bread. Red wine and whiskey are delicious when paired with beef.
