I have already posted my recipe for a BBQ sauce I whipped up... Tennessee's own favorite son, Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey BBQ Sauce and Glaze! The sauce was in honor of our visiting friends from Tennessee, Larry and his entourage of family and pets that have been RVing across the country for the last 2 months. Larry writes the Big Dude's Eclectic Ramblings Blog where you can look over some of the best scenery and stories of his trip.
The sauce was used to glaze up one of the best Turkeys I have ever made. I pulled out the stops and brined the bird for 24 hours and then injected a Cajun Butter into the meat. That Whiskey sauce was used as a glaze during the final 15 minutes of slow smoking (on a Weber kettle grill) for this Brined, Injected, Whisky Glazed BBQ Turkey! While it does sound like a lot of work, this was the star of the afternoon with lots of atta boy comments!But I had over a dozen friends and family that wanted to meet up with Larry and his travelling band. So in addition to the bird I wanted to go a different route and give folks a choice... BEEF, it's what's for dinner!
This 4 pound beef rib eye roast was on sale last week. Cheaper than hamburger. I would probably normally just roast this in an oven but my oven space was at a premium. So I used a gas grill, set it up for indirect heat (Burners on the sides were turned on medium heat while the center burners were left off. This converted my grill to an oven with even convection heating. I stabilized the temperature to about 375. and it came out just fine. I got busy and missed the temperature deadline for medium rare but this came out a wonderful 150 degree Medium cooked piece of meat. I drizzled a little olive oil over the meat after I cut into it and it all worked just fine.
As to the Garlic...
LOTS of garlic. I took 10 pieces of garlic and sliced them into thin thirds. That's thirty pieces of garlic! I embedded these into the roast. Just take a knife that is about the same size as the garlic pieces. Poke deep enough so that the entire garlic piece will sit inside the meat. If you are not a fan of garlic, these are large enough to pick out as you cut the finished slices. BUT, the garlic roasted along with the meat juices makes for an incredible taste.
Dried Garlic Flakes
Garlic Powder
Onion Powder
Slightly crushed Peppercorns
Sea Salt
Black and White Pepper
Mix this all together and then rub the meat. NOTE: This is a rub, not a sprinkle. Bub this into the mustard, Pay particular attention to the holes that the you made with the garlic. This forms a bark, which helps to hold in all the juices that might have leaked out during the slow roasting grilling.
I cooked this on my grill, indirect heat, (Almost like smoking on a grill, Coals or burners on each side of the meat turned to medium. Burners or coals directly under the meat off (or clear of coals). The Grill temperature close to the meat was about 375 degrees.
