Perfect Sunday Roast

Keto Recipes > Keto Dinner Recipes

A Sunday roast is the perfect meal for any special occasion. Whether it’s a birthday, holiday, or just a family get together, a roast is a classic and traditional way to get everyone around the table enjoying a fantastic meal.

I came across this recipe a while back, and I’ve done some variations on it – in the end, I always come back to using the same recipe I found years ago. It’s one of the best ways I’ve ever cooked a roast, and one of the most delicious ways to get the money out of a roast.

I know roasts can get quite expensive, but if it’s a special occasion in your house or you’re having guests over, then this would be the perfect recipe to serve! Though I served with broccoli, I highly suggest serving this with some Roasted Pecan Green Beans – it would be a match made in heaven 🙂

The fat on this roast literally melts in your mouth. It’s so delicious together with the almost fall apart meat that you’ll be asking yourself why you never cooked a roast like this before. Seriously, you can cut this meat with a fork – it’s THAT tender!

4. Now, for the hard part. Let the roast sit in the oven for 1 hour. After 1 hour, turn off the oven completely. Let the roast sit in the oven for 3 hours. Do NOT open the oven door – you want the residual heat to continue cooking the meat.

About 30-45 minutes before serving the meat, turn the oven back on to 375F.

5. Remove the roast from the oven and cover with foil. Let it rest for 10 minutes additionally.
