Slow Roast Beef
We've adapted the classic roast into a buffet-style, serve-yourself dish, with options: make a sandwich (with cornichons and horseradish sauce) if you want, or eat it up as distinct components if that's more your thing. Store-bought rolls that have been reheated, brushed with butter, and sprinkled with flaky salt might not be the same as homemade, but they will impress nonetheless.

Preparation Lightly score fat cap of roast, spacing cuts about 3/4" apart, with a sharp knife, being careful not to slice into the flesh. Season roast generously on all sides with salt and pepper.
