So, went to make this Alton Brown recipe for “rump roast”:
Went to the store and saw “bottom rump roast”, but accidentally picked up “bottom round roast” because it was the correct weight (about 3.5 pounds). Many different roasts, all in the same spot. Did not realize what I did until I got home.
So, what’s the difference between “bottom rump roast” (or rump roast) and “bottom round roast”?

Apparently, the rump roast is fattier. Darn!
And it’s even more confusing, as here’s an Epicurious article all about roasts, and it does not mention a “rump roast”:
Well, I’ll see what happens 10 hours from now. By the way, Alton Brown sears the meat first then puts it in the sous vide. I did not do this, because for us to eat around 5:30pm, I needed to get the roast in the sous vide by about 7am. I did not want wake others up by searing at 6:30 am. So, I’ll sear it when I pull it out 10 hours from now.
