The Manhattan Roast

Your experiences would be of interest to me.  I am not familiar with it personally.......but has me intrigued. The description states that it is cut from the NY Strip (full description below picture). Credit for the photo goes to SRF

..... Snake River Farms American Wagyu Manhattan Roast. This unique roast is cut from the same tender section as our New York Strip Steaks. The Manhattan Roast shares the luxurious beef flavor and firm yet tender texture of our New York Strip Steaks. The size is slightly smaller than a typical roast which means it cooks quickly - in as little as an hour. The Manhattan Roast is the perfect size when you have fewer folks at your holiday table. More people coming? Just cook a second roast!

Each roast is hand-tied with kitchen twine to create a uniform shape that cooks evenly and lends an artisanal touch to this elegant cut. Brighten your holiday table with our Manhattan Roast. You’ll love the convenient size and quick cooking time. Your guests will be delighted by the deeply marbled, wonderful complexity and subtle sweetness of American Wagyu beef.

    Have never cooked the SRF Wagyu beef, but have purchased a full strip loin from Costco. Cut the larger end into steaks and the smaller end into small roasts. Was quite good as a roast, but better for steaks IMO. If you order let us know how it was.

    I have pretty much the same comment. I've also bought the full strip loin and made a large portion of it into a roast.  It was good but not as good as a ribeye roast.

    I would do that just like a Prime Rib Roast as that is what it reminds me of. Just a nice rub of Kosher Salt and Pepper and then onto a pan with a grate set high so the heat can flow around it and in the oven at 250* until it hits 110* internal. Set aside and let rise covered to 120* the eat. Makes me hungry just thinking about it. Glad I made Jambalya for dinner tonight.

    Cooks Country did an episode on a strip roast(Manhattan) back in 2007 or so. Looked pretty good. They made a chimichurri sauce with it

    So - the story behind this roast is that we're really short on SRF prime ribs this year (we're sold out as of yesterday).  One of our retailers (Lund's and Byerly I think) had us create this a year or so ago in our Double R Ranch beef to sell in their store and it did really well for them.  We decided to bring them in and give them a shot, possibly as a "replacement" for prime rib.  I tried it for the first time about a month ago and I was really impressed.  It's a bit more tender than a traditional prime rib, and while NY cuts typically have slightly less "beefy" flavor than a rib, because it's SRF wagyu and so highly marbled, it doesn't cause any issues in this product.  I also like the size of it, at about 2.5 lbs it's perfect for a dinner of 4-5 people.  For that size gathering I would usually cook a center-cut tenderloin or something along those lines, and honestly, I like this product better.  Anyway, those are my thoughts on the Manhattan Roast!

    I did one for Thanksgiving, Low and slow. It was kind of hectic, as we had planned for about 8 folks, then the number went up just a couple of days before the cook, I had to go but a second rib roast.
    I forked over a ton of money at our butcher to get a prime, french cut.
    Cooked them both side by side, on the XL, low and slow, prepped identical.
    In my opinion, and the opinion of others that joined us for dinner that night, there was a noticeable difference between the two.
    SRF was perceived by everyone to be better than the butcher shop. It may have had an advantage, due to having it on hand longer, and able to let it sit in the fridge longer to help make the edges get a bit more crust, helping to keep the moisture in and dry brined longer.
    But the flavor was superior, and the meat much more tender. It was delicious and I will do it again.
    I think it is definitely worth it.

    Yes. I did the SRF Wagyu last year, was excellent. Cooked to 120 degrees and it was something great. Very enjoyable for a special meal.

    That said, I'm thinking about it again this year, but they haven't ran any sales other than 10% off right now, that make me want to jump at it again. Probably just get a prime ribeye sub primal at Costco, cut the ends for steaks and do my own center cut prime rib based on our size needs for the holiday.

    @northGAcock How did you prep this? I have one coming in the mail today and thought about trying it for my virgin Joetisserie cook. I don't want to mess it up and see you have ventured this path.

    I cooked at around 300-325 indirect if i recall....as this was a while back. I did not use any smoking wood....which is my approach with a Rib Roast as well. I used a coffee rub which was a great match. Watch the meat temp closely as it will cook faster than you might think. Hope this is helpful. Interested in knowing how the Joetisseie works for you on this cook. Also, email me a bite or two will ya?
