Baltimore Pit Beef Recipe 41

Steps:

• Sauce: whisk all ingredients together.
• Beef: combine all seasonings. Pat meat dry with paper towels and rub evenly over beef. Cover with saran wrap and let stand at room temp for at least 1 hour or refrigerated for up to 24 hours. (If refrigerated, let stand at room temp 1 hour before grilling). Before cooking, unwrap meat and rub with oil.
• Charcoal grill: Open bottom grill vents completely. Light a large chimney started filled with charcoal briquettes (100 briquettes; 6 quarts). When coals are hot, pour in an even layer over 1/2 grill, leaving other 1/2 empty. Set cooking grate in place, cover and heat grill until hot.
• Gas grill: turn all burners to high, cover and heat until hot.
• Clean and oil cooking grate. Place meat on the hotter part of the grill. Cook, (covered if using gas), turning often, until evenly blackened on all sides and the center of meat is 95-100 degrees (med rare); 30 minutes.
• Transfer meat to a cutting board, tent with foil and let rest 30 minutes. Cut roast in 1/2 lengthwise, then slice against the grain as thinly as possible. Divide sliced meat equally among Kaiser rolls, top with onion and Tiger Sauce and serve.

Steps:

• TIGER SAUCE: Whisk mayonnaise, horseradish, lemon juice, and garlic together in bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. (Sauce can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.) PIT BEEF: Combine seasonings in bowl. Pat roasts dry with paper towels and rub with 2 tablespoons seasoning mixture. Wrap meat tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 6 to 24 hours. CHARCOAL GRILLING: Open bottom vent halfway. Light large chimney starter filled with charcoal briquettes (6 quarts). When top coals are partially covered with ash, pour evenly over half of grill. Set cooking grate in place, cover, and open lid vent halfway. Heat grill until hot, about 5 minutes. GAS GRILL: Turn all burners to high, cover, and heat grill until hot, about 15 minutes. Leave primary burner on high and turn off other burner(s). Clean and oil cooking grate. Unwrap roasts and place end to end on long side of 18 by 12-inch sheet of aluminum foil. Loosely fold opposite long side of foil around top of roasts. Place meat on cool part of grill with foil-covered side closest to heat source. Cover (positioning lid vents over meat if using charcoal) and cook until meat registers 100 degrees, 45 to 60 minutes. Transfer roasts to plate and discard foil. Turn all burners to high if using gas. If using charcoal, carefully remove cooking grate and light large chimney starter three-quarters full with charcoal briquettes (4 1/2 quarts). When top coals are partially covered with ash, pour evenly over spent coals. Set cooking grate in place and cover. Heat grill until hot, about 5 minutes. Pat roasts dry with paper towels and rub with remaining spice mixture. Place meat on hot part of grill. Cook (covered if using gas), turning occasionally, until charred on all sides and meat registers 120 to 125 degrees (for medium-rare), 10 to 20 minutes. Transfer meat to carving board, tent loosely with foil, and rest 15 minutes. Slice meat thin against the grain. Transfer sliced beef to buns, top with onions, and drizzle with sauce. Serve.

Steps:

• Start the day before serving.
• Mix seasonings well and roll the roast in the mixture.
• Pour the liquid smoke over the roast.
• Tear 8 layers of heavy duty foil in approximately 24 inch lengths.
• Wrap the roast in each piece of foil individually, sealing layer each well.
• After using 4 lengths of foil, place roast in a large brown grocery bag and seal with masking tape.
• Continue with the other 4 lengths of foil, again, sealing well.
• Place in a large roasting pan and put into a 200°F oven for 24 hours.
• Do NOT disturb the meat while roasting.
