About roasting beef
USDA recommends cooking beef steaks and roasts to 145°F (63°C) with a 3-minute rest. For ground beef, cook to 160°F (71°C).
Cooking times are estimates and depend on oven accuracy, the shape and starting temperature of your meat, and other factors. Always verify doneness with a reliable meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part, avoiding bone.
