AR, it's easy...this is how I do mine. Top round makes great roast beef.

First, get a meat thermometer, if you don't already have one. This is invaluable. They have them in most grocery stores.
Have the store tie the roast for you (it cooks more evenly) or do it yourself with cotton string (not vital, but helpful). Rub the outside with garlic powder, salt and pepper, and place on a rack in a roasting pan, fat side up.
Heat your oven to 500 degrees, and roast for about 10 minutes, until a nice brown crust forms. Then lower the oven to 250 and roast until the internal temperature is 130 in the thickest part, for medium rare. Take the roast out and let it sit for 20 minutes. You can then carve it for hot roast beef, or chill it to slice it cold. One suggestion...remove the string before you chill it; much easier.
This will give you a juicy, evenly cooked roast with great flavor.

I am a Costco Fan, they have them all the time for 2.29 a lb, and are usually 7-10 lbs.... so I will get one, cut it into 4 and freeze... then I will either roast as above, slice steaks out of it, make stir fry, carne gusida, or any other stew, or kbob it.
It is a pretty tender cut of meat, not a lot of fat, and will lend itself to a lot of different flaavors.

I grind it!

I use my Kitchenaid stand mixer with the grinder attachment. Makes the best ground beef you'll ever eat.

Sometimes I also crockpot it with onions and garlic, or a jar of LC salsa.

Or I cut it into 1" chunks and make chile adovado.

YUM, now I want BEEF!!

just remember tho, that most meats continue to cook for a few minutes while they are sitting, (outside the oven)
