The term rostbraten is used in German-speaking countries, including Germany and Austria, to refer to certain cuts of beef as well as dishes made from these cuts. Regarding cuts, the rostbraten usually refers to a section from the rump or loin of the cow, which corresponds to parts of the sirloin or rump steak in the UK and the US.
This cut is known for being lean and quite tender, making it well-suited to various cooking methods, including roasting, grilling, or pan-frying. When used in a dish also called rostbraten, this cut of beef is often seared in a hot pan and then further cooked in the oven or simmered with onions and broth, depending on regional variations of the recipe.
