About this cut

What it is and how to use it

The rump is the muscle at the back end of the loin, where the back leg begins. It is lean, boneless, and a little firmer than the loin. As a roast, it is economical and mild in flavor. It is best roasted with a rub or braised until tender. It can also be cut into cubes for stews or kabobs.

Cook’s tipRoast to 145°F and rest three minutes, or braise longer for tender, shreddable meat.
