Barbeque Roast Beef – Indirect BBQ Cooking

This barbeque roast beef recipe is really simple and all you need is a grill that’s set up for indirect BBQ cooking. If you’re not familiar with this term it means that the fire is not directly above the meat so in essence you’re cooking more like as you would in a traditional oven.

You can cook indirectly provided you have more than one gas burner on your barbecue. Use one burner to heat up the coals on one side of the grill and place your meat on the other with a drip tray underneath.

For the recipe, any good slab of roasting beef will do.

Ingredients:-

• Beef joint
• Worcestershire sauce (or your favorite bbq marinade)
• Salt and pepper

Method:-

Place the beef in a plastic bag and pour in ½ cup (100ml) of your marinade, seal the bag and refrigerate for as long as you have patience! A minimum of two or three hours is essential and you can enhance the process by injecting marinade.

When the grill is ready, season the beef well with salt and pepper and cook just as if you were roasting. I like my beef rare so I’ll be going for 15 minutes per pound plus 15 minutes at 200°C or 400°F but you may want to do slightly longer depending on your preference. Remember that if the outside is well cooked then it’s safe to eat.

Serve with potatoes in creme fraiche, a green salad and perhaps some Cabernet Sauvignon?
