FLBR - This is how I did mine, though I sure you don't need any advice.  :D  I'm still not sure of Top Round is the same as Sirloin or not.

Top round is a little less tender than Sirloin, because it's located on the rear leg. The Sirloin area doesn't get much of a work out, so it's a little more tender.

Wow, that one really looks great FLBR!

The market advertised the beef as "Sirloin Roast" and when I got there it was "Top Round".  In any case, it came out great sliced up nice and thin.

Thanks for the info Kevin.  I think some of the markets play a little loose with their 'terminology'.  I've seen whole trimmed beef tenderloin advertised locally for 6.99.  I asked them about the grade when I got there and the butcher said it was USDA Select - not so hot.

I moved my temp probe for my PID to under the roast (I used to keep it near the top)

The result was the roast took 11 hours(midnight) to get to 132F - the last roast was done in 6 hours or so.

There was a brisket under the roast, but I don't think that would have added to the time THAT much..

Pics on Tuesday when I slice and seal.
