### **Chef’s Tips for Consistent Results**
– **Choose the right cut**: “Prime” grade has more marbling than “Choice,” but either works beautifully.
– **Use a roasting rack**: Elevates the meat, promoting even cooking.
– **Dry brine overnight**: Salt your roast the day before and leave it uncovered in the fridge. This enhances flavor and texture.
– **Don’t skip the thermometer**: Guessing leads to over- or under-cooked meat—accuracy is everything.
