Ingredients

How to make it

  • I use my chicken shears to punch holes in the roast. I punch a hole and then twist the scissors to open the hole. I knife or screwdriver will also work.
  • Once the holes are done, heavily sprinkle on the seasoning.
  • Using a cup of water, drizzle water on the roast to take the seasonings into the holes.
  • Sprinkle a second coating on the roast and rub in.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and marinate overnight.
  • Remove from the refrigerator at least an hour before cooking.
  • Completely wrap in heavy duty foil with the fat layer down.
  • I cook on the grill on one side without heat. It is cooked using indirect heat and only cooks about 45 minutes. About half way through I light the gas flame under the roast on low for 5 minutes then turn off the flame under the roast.
  • Use a instant heat thermometer and remove with the temp reads 120 degrees tg get a roast as picture. The tip will be cooked more than the rest.
  • Allow to rest for 15-20 minutes once removed.
  • There will be a wonderful collection of juice in the tin foil. I like to slice the meat then dredge the slices in the juice before placing on the plate.
  • If there are left overs, I slice the whole roast and put all the juice in the container. It is great heated the next day or two by putting some on a Styrofoam plate and nuking it for about a minute.

    But formaldehyde will preserve you :-) I use both. I will check tomorrow and see it there is a problem with using Styrofoam in the microwave. Will advise.

    Sounds great .... but Good Lord don't put styrofoam in the microwave. There's formaldehyde in it which is released in the oven. I use paper plates.
