A Favorite Roast Recipe
Preparation Time20 min
Cooking Time3 hr 30 min
Cooking MethodGrilling
Ingredients
- 2 pounds roast
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/2 pound bacon
- olive oil
- black pepper
- hickory (for smoke)
Instructions
- Take a 2 lb. roast and trim any fat or tendon that's visible. Slice across the roast about 1/8 - 1/4". deep four to six slits. The depth will depend on the overall size/thickness of the roast.
- Chop two cloves of garlic and stuff. garlic pieces into the slits of the roast. Sprinkle a liberal amount of black pepper over the top of the roast.
- Smoke for 3-4 hrs, or until a small "taste test" shows it's done to your liking. I use hickory for smoke, but apple is just as tasty. I also mix some white cooking wine with a little water in my water pan.
- Discard the bacon and garlic cloves when done, then slice and enjoy. Another easy method is to just use the spices of your choice, and coat it with olive oil to keep it from drying out. Smoke 3-4 hrs. unless it's a really large roast. Sometimes simple is best! :) Good luck and enjoy.
