According to the USDA, an average of 60 lbs. of beef is eaten by every American each year. Beef is easily prepared in the oven, on the grill or in a crock pot. Crock pots make for fast preparation of a beef round sirloin tip roast. This roast is less tender than top sirloin or loin roast, but the long, slow cooking in a crock pot tenderizes this cut of beef.
