How Long Does It Take To Cook A 5 Lb Roast?
The cooking time for a 5 lb roast will depend on the cooking method and desired level of doneness. Generally, a 5 lb roast can take 1.5 to 2.5 hours in a conventional oven at 350°F for medium-rare to medium doneness. However, it is always recommended to use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the roast to ensure it reaches a safe temperature of at least 145°F before serving.
