Depends on how you like your roast but I would cook it about gas mark 4 or 5, electric just under 200 degrees. Think I would have it on for most of the day, considering the weight.
I am sure it will taste brilliant.
Remember to use the juices for your gravy.

remember to let the joint rest for about 20 minutes before you slice it........really makes a difference!
