Petite Tender Beef Roast
Intercity Custom Meats - The Petite Tender Beef Roast, also known as the Teres Major, Mock Tender or Shoulder Petite Tender, is a tender and lean roast. The teres major is a rare cut that is a small, specific muscle from within the chuck. You may be familiar with a chuck roast, but the teres major is much more tender, and requires expert butchery skills to extract.
This is a small roast, that is perfect for 2-3 servings. Our butchers carefully tie the roast with butcher twine for easy carving and a beautiful presentation.
This is a specialty cut that is difficult to find at your local grocery stores so grab it while you can!

Cooking Instructions
- Thaw the roast in the packaging and under refrigeration.
- When fully thawed, remove from the packaging and leave the string attached.
- Preheat your oven to 375 F.
- Lightly oil the roast and season with coarse salt and pepper, or your favourite spice blend.
- Transfer the roast to a baking dish or tray, preferably with a roasting rack to ensure more even cooking, and place on the middle rack of the preheated oven.
- Roast for approx. 25 to 35 minutes, until an instant read thermometer measures 130 F for a medium doneness. Cook more or less depending on your personal preference.
- When the roast is at the desired temperature, remove it from the oven, and loosely tent the roast with aluminum foil and allow to rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.
- Resting is important as it allows the juices to re-distribute throughout the roast, and when sliced those juices stay inside, instead of on your cutting board. It makes for a much nicer eating experience.
- After resting, cut away the string with scissors, and slice away.
For Added Flavour - Try the skillet-to-oven method
In this method, steps 1-4 above stay the same. But instead of simply roasting in step 5, sear the roast on all sides first in an oiled cast iron skillet, for approx. 2 minutes per side on medium high heat, and then transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast following steps 6-9 above except cut the oven cooking time to about 20-25 minutes, or until desired temperature is reached.
This method provides a flavour boost by searing all sides creating more caramelization which in turn tastes a lot better.
