Beef round roast is a cut of beef from the hindquarter of the animal, specifically from the muscles located in the leg or rump. It is a compact, lean cut with little fat, ideal for preparations that require prolonged cooking such as stews, braises, and roasts, as slow cooking makes it very tender and juicy.
This cut is very popular in the cuisine of several Spanish-speaking countries in Latin America, especially in regions where beef is a fundamental ingredient. Its origin is related to the cattle-raising tradition of these areas, where different cuts are used for different culinary preparations.
In terms of its properties, beef round roast is rich in high-quality proteins, B vitamins like B12, and essential minerals such as iron and zinc. It is an excellent option for balanced diets seeking significant nutritional value without an excess of fat.
Depending on the country or region, beef round roast may also be known as rump roast, top round, bottom round, or eye of round. These synonyms can vary and sometimes correspond to similar or adjacent cuts from the animal, so it is always advisable to consult with your butcher to identify the best cut for your recipe.
