Preheat you oven to 325 degrees. Remove the roast from the packaging it came in. Look at your cut of meat. It should look bright red if it is fresh. Maybe not of previously frozen. If your rump roast has freezer burn, throw it away. Also, if the meat has a putrid smell do not buy, eat or prepare.

Put the meat in the oven on the middle rack. Cook the rump roast without a top or aluminum. The USDA says a roast needs to be cooked 35 minutes for every pound.

Keep it over the heat to make sure it reaches this height.
