BEER-SOAKED BEEF ROTISSERIE ROAST

If you're having a gang over, or just want to ensure leftovers for another meal, try a beer-soaked roast on the rotisserie.

INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 cups   375 mL   beer (ale or lager)
3   3   garlic cloves, minced
3/4 cup   175 mL   ketchup
1/3 cup   75 mL   EACH balsamic vinegar and brown sugar
3 tbsp   45 mL   EACH Dijon mustard and chili powder
4 lb   2 kg   Beef Oven or Rotisserie Roast (e.g. Sirloin Tip or Inside Round)

PREPARATION TIME: 5 minutes
COOKING TIME: 1 1/2 to 2 hours
MARINATING TIME: 12 - 24 hours

DIRECTIONS
Combine all ingredients (except beef) in large sealable freezer bag. Pierce roast all over with a fork. Add roast to bag and refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours. Discard marinade.

To cook on a rotisserie, place drip pan with ½ inch (1 cm) water under grill. Using medium-high heat, preheat barbecue to 400ºF (200°C). Insert spit rod lengthwise through centre of roast; secure with holding forks. Insert meat thermometer into middle of roast avoiding spit rod. Maintaining constant heat, cook roast over drip pan in closed barbecue to desired doneness: 140ºF (60ºC) for medium-rare; 155ºF (68°C) for medium. Remove roast to cutting board; tent with foil for 10-15 minutes to allow temperature to rise an additional 5ºF. Carve into thin slices to serve.

NUMBER OF SERVINGS: 10 - 12 SERVINGS


   
   

TIP
No Rotisserie? No Problem! Place roast on grill over drip pan on one side of the barbecue. Turn heat off just under the roast and cook as above.
