I think I'd go with your mother in-law there! (butchers aren't always great cooks)
Let it rest for at least 10 minutes too.

I browned the piece on a pan, all 4ish sides for about 5mins altogether, then in oven about 230c for nearly 30 mins, rested for 10 mins, result was very good, done medium, light pink inside.
Next time I will brown it more first to give it a nice crust, then cover in whole grain mustard and black pepper and cook at 230c for maybe 23 mins ? and rest again for 10 mins. Should be a nice compliment of tasty crust with pink smooth inside.
