Grilling

Barbecued Roast for Two

60 min cooking

Serves 2

Difficulty 2/5

Put your barbecue to work to cook roast beef to perfection. Use indirect heat to cook the roast evenly without flare-ups. The shape of the roast has as much to do with the cook time as the size and the cut. NOTE: ‘Time-to-cook’ figures are rough guidelines only as cook time is dependent on so many factors such as: barbecue and thermometer accuracy, starting temperature of roast, roast shape and cut. A good thermometer is one of your best kitchen investments.

Directions

1. Rub roast with garlic, and salt and pepper to your taste. 2. Fill drip pan with water and place under grill (off to one side). Preheat barbecue to medium-high (400°F). 3. Insert oven-safe meat thermometer into centre of roast. Place roast on grill over flame and cook for 5 minutes per side. Move roast to grill over the drip pan; turn off burner under drip pan. Close lid and cook with indirect heat for about 50 minutes hours for medium-rare, removing from grill when 5°F (3°C) below desired finished temperature (145°F/63°C for medium-rare, or 160°F/71°C for medium, or 170°F/77°C for well-done). 4. Transfer to cutting board, cover with foil and let rest for 15 minutes before carving into slices.
