Question: how long to cook a top round roast

[cheezz]

I rarely do anything but a 7-bone roast as you just can't go wrong there, but I want this to be very tender... the label says "Beef Round Top Round Roast" and is just shy of 2 lbs. I am going to sear it quickly, then wrap in foil with a packet of dry onion soup mix (Thanks Gayle!), like we used to do many years ago.

Any suggestions?

I did this recently and tried for about 1 1/2 hours at 250 but it didn't

come out too tender. 'Not sure what I did wrong!

Oh darn, that was supposed to be 3 1/2 hours!

I'm thinking that cut might need even more time...

Top round roast results...

After searing it in my skillet, I sprinkled with a package of onion soup mix, poured over 1/2 cup beef broth, pressed foil over the rim of the skillet, then put the lid on. Baked at 325 deg. for 1-1/2 hours and it was perfect!

I usually use this cut in my crockpot, with the onion soup too. not much help here.
