TIP
An evenly shaped boneless premium oven roast (Top Sirloin, Rib Eye, Prime Rib or Tenderloin) can be substituted for a rotisserie roast.

An Oven Roast (such as Sirloin Tip, Eye of Round or Inside Round) would well in this recipe. Simply marinade roast in salad dressing for 12-24 hours in the fridge before roasting on grill.
