What is New York Strip Roast?

Let’s get clear on what we are making today. New York Strip Roast comes from the loin section on the animal and is very tender. This means it’s going to be a high-quality cut and pricier than a lesser quality cut.

It can also be called Strip Roast or Top Loin Roast. When this cut of beef is broken down further, you get New York Strip Steaks! It all makes sense now, right?

Is New York Strip Roast the same as Prime Rib?

No, New York Strip Roast is not the same as a Prime Rib Roast. The Prime Rib Roast comes from the area a bit farther back on the animal and therefore is a thicker roast.

If you have a Prime Rib Roast you need a recipe for, I have a great one right here. Both roast cuts are delicious and will be a dinner your whole family will look forward to all year long!

Is Top Loin Roast the same as Tenderloin?

Again, the answer here is no. While these two Roasts do come from the same primal cut, they are different Roasts. Tenderloin Roast is the most tender cut of beef you can buy and when broken down further gives

Filet Mignon Steaks. If you are looking for the best Beef Tenderloin recipe in the world, click here.

Is New York Strip Roast Boneless?

If you have your butcher cut your New York Strip Roast for you, you can request they leave the bone on, cut the bone off but tie it on, or buy it boneless. For this particular recipe, using a boneless New York Strip Roast is fine.

Where to Buy New York Strip Roast

New York Strip Roast might not be a cut you see out in the meat case at your local grocery store (Remember, look for Top Loin Roast too, they are the same!). If you don’t see it, don’t worry! Cutting a New York Strip Roast isn’t hard and most butchers in local grocery stores can do it for you.

If there are New York Strip Steaks in the case, your butcher should be able to cut you a roast since they come from the same cut of meat. Call ahead to make sure your local store has it and set a up a pickup time with the butcher. That way you’ll be ready to roll come holiday feast day!

How to Cook a New York Strip Roast

1. Preheat the oven to 475ºF.
2. Combine the butter, olive oil, salt, pepper, rosemary, sage, and garlic.
3. Smear evenly over the New York Strip Roast (see note).
4. Line a sheet tray with foil. Place a wire cooling rack on the sheet tray.
5. Place the roast on the wire cooling rack.
6. Cook for 10 minutes.
7. Reduce the oven temperature to 375ºF.
8. Remove roast when meat thermometer registers 135°F for medium rare; 145°F for medium doneness. Let stand 15 minutes. (Temperature will continue to rise about 10°-15°F to reach 145°F for medium rare; 160°F for medium.)

New York Strip Roast Cooking Time Per Pound (lb)

The cooking time per pound after you lower the heat is going to vary depending on how you want the roast finished. If you want a medium-rare finish, which is what I recommend, cook the roast about 18 minutes per pound for a final internal temperature of 145ºF.

For any cut of beef, using a meat thermometer (link to meat thermometer) is going to give you the most accurate idea of when it’s reached temperature.
