Sunday dinner at our house growing up almost always involved a roast beef or a roast chicken. Both would make the house smell absolutely delicious for a day.

This Sunday to welcome my Mom home from a week long trip, we had Sunday dinner. Together we prepared a beautiful beef sirloin roast from Crocetti’s Market. I seasoned and salted and Mom added my Grandmother’s touches of sliced onion and garlic studding the roast.

In the convection oven at 325 F until it reaches an internal temp of 125 F.

The nice thing about a roast (of almost any sort) is that it is hands off until it’s done. So it was time for some fun with the kids a glass of wine and a relaxed evening to kick off the next week.
