I noticed a person taking issue with the 50-60 pound steamship round. She felt it should be a 5-6 pound roast. A steamship round is typically a 60 pound roast. It is the type seen in restaurants where the chef carves the roast at the end of a buffet line.

The previous reviewer did not notice that this recipe is intended to serve up to 200 people- a 5 to 6 lb. roast would leave a lot of those folks hungry! Personally I would use more vegetables for a roast of that size, but that's just me. It's a basic roast recipe- save the "shame on you" for something more important. Be happy.




50 lb. roast?

I'm sure this recipe would work fine for the people who cook a lot and realize there is a major typo in the ingredients list. It must be a 5 or 6 lb. steamship round not a 50 pr 60 lb. roast, but who can be absolutley sure, it isn't one typo like "50 - 6 lb.", nope, it is 2 typos. I doubt the measly 3 onions and couple of carrots will add much flavor to a piece of beef that size and as for the roasting time, let's not go there. Personally, I'm stuck on the idea of if the darn thing would even fit in my oven! So for a cook who is fairly new, go with the size of the roast being a typo and look for a roast that is 5 or 6 pounds. Shame on the author, the typist, and this site for a very poor job of proofreading.




Fantastic

The steamship round was wonderful, but never got done in the time specified, therefore my party was on hold. It takes much longer to cook than stated. I also cooke this meat in a convection oven, thinking that would help, it didn't. Great recipe, just make sure you have enough extra time.




EXCELLANT

It is doubtful you could find one much less than 20 pounds. It was not a problem with the editor, the typist, or the proofreaders for this site but rather your lack of understanding. We are awaiting your apology. This will be the third one I have cooked for Easter and the first two were so delicious that I had to do the third one to prevent a riot! I was lucky to get a 20 pound roast but there will be a lot left over for for use later.
