Bottom Round Roast, Beef

The beef bottom round is the outside muscle of the upper leg. The bottom round roast can be used as an oven roast if it is of the best quality, but it can become very tough and chewy if it is roasted too long. The best results occur when the meat is pot-roasted, which helps to tenderize the meat.
