Barbecued Beef Roast



Barbecued Beef Roast


A barbecued beef roast should be smoky, tender, deeply flavorful, and caramelized on the outside. This recipe creates exactly that—using a bold dry rub, a moisture-locking marinade, and a low-and-slow grill method that gives you a perfectly juicy roast every time.


Ingredients (Serves 6–8)

For the Beef

Dry Rub (Bold BBQ Flavor)

  • 2 tbsp brown sugar

  • 1 tbsp smoked paprika

  • 2 tsp garlic powder

  • 2 tsp onion powder

  • 2 tsp kosher salt

  • 1 tsp black pepper

  • 1 tsp chili powder

  • 1 tsp mustard powder

  • ½ tsp ground cumin

  • ½ tsp cayenne (optional for heat)

Basting Mop Sauce

  • ½ cup beef broth

  • ⅓ cup apple cider vinegar

  • 2 tbsp ketchup

  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 tbsp brown sugar

  • 1 tsp paprika

  • 1 tsp garlic powder


Instructions

1. Prep the Roast (Marinate or Dry-Brine)

  1. Pat roast dry.

  2. Rub roast with olive oil, Worcestershire, vinegar, and mustard.

  3. Coat generously with the dry rub, pressing it into the meat.

  4. Refrigerate 4 hours up to overnight.

    • Overnight = deeper smoke ring, richer flavor, and better bark.


2. Set Up the Grill (Charcoal or Gas)

Charcoal Grill Setup

Gas Grill Setup

  • Turn on one side only for indirect cooking.

  • Add a smoker box with wood chips.


3. Slow Grill the Roast

  1. Place the roast on the cool side of the grill, fat side up.

  2. Close the lid and cook for 1.5 to 2.5 hours, depending on size.

  3. Mop with the basting sauce every 30 minutes.

Internal Temperature Guide

  • 135°F (57°C) → Medium-rare

  • 145°F (63°C) → Medium

  • 155–165°F (68–74°C) → Well done or shreddable (chuck roast)


4. Sear for Bark (Optional but Amazing)

Once the roast is near target temp:

  1. Move the roast over direct heat.

  2. Sear 2–3 minutes per side until dark, caramelized edges form.


5. Rest and Slice

  • Rest 15–20 minutes before slicing.

  • Slice against the grain for tenderness.


Serving Ideas






Chef’s High-Value Tips

✔ Use a fattier roast for juicier results

Chuck or top sirloin performs best on the grill.

✔ Keep the grill lid closed

Stable heat = even cooking and deeper smoke flavor.

✔ Mop lightly

Too much liquid rinses off the bark — a light brush is ideal.

✔ Want extreme tenderness?

Wrap the roast in foil at 150–160°F and continue until 180–190°F for a “Texas-style” semi-braised texture.


Flavor Variations

1. Sweet & Smoky Style

Add 1 tbsp maple syrup to the mop sauce.

2. Spicy Cajun Roast

Use Cajun seasoning + extra cayenne in the rub.

3. Asian BBQ Beef Roast

Swap the mop with:

  • ¼ cup soy sauce

  • 2 tbsp honey

  • 1 tsp sesame oil

  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed

4. Coffee-Rub BBQ Roast

Add 1 tbsp finely ground coffee to the dry rub—gives incredible bark.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Prepare the Beef Roast

  1. Pat the roast dry with paper towels.

  2. Rub with:

    • olive oil

    • salt

    • pepper

    • garlic powder

    • onion powder

    • paprika

    • thyme/rosemary

    • mustard powder

  3. Let rest 20–30 minutes at room temperature while preparing the grill.


2. Prepare the Vegetables

  1. Toss potatoes, carrots, onion, peppers, and garlic with:

    • olive oil

    • salt

    • pepper

    • Italian seasoning

    • smoked paprika

  2. Place them in a grill-safe baking pan, foil tray, or cast-iron skillet.

  3. Set aside.


3. Heat the Grill

You’ll be using indirect heat, like an outdoor oven.

  • Preheat grill to 375–400°F (190–205°C).

  • Turn on burners on one side only (gas), or push coals to one side (charcoal).

  • Keep the other side off – this is where the roast will sit.


4. Start Roasting the Beef

  1. Place the seasoned roast on the cooler side of the grill (indirect heat).

  2. Close the lid and roast 30 minutes.

  3. Add the pan of vegetables next to the beef after the first 30 minutes.


5. Continue Roasting the Full Dinner

  • Roast another 45–75 minutes, depending on the cut and desired doneness.

6. Optional: Add Butter & Herbs

During the last 10 minutes:

  • Place 1–2 tbsp of butter on top of the roast.

  • Add fresh herbs around the pan.
    This melts into the meat and vegetables, giving a glossy, steakhouse finish.


7. Rest the Beef

Remove from the grill and let rest 10–15 minutes before slicing.
This keeps the meat juicy.


8. Serve the Full Grilled Dinner

Slice the roast across the grain and surround it with the grilled vegetables.

500°F Eye-of-Round Roast


500°F Eye-of-Round Roast


Here is a classic, reliable method for making a 500°F Eye-of-Round Roast—tender, rosy inside, with a delicious crust. This is the famous “high-heat then no-heat” approach.


500°F Eye-of-Round Roast

Ingredients

  • 1 eye-of-round roast (3–4 lbs)

  • 2–3 tbsp olive oil

  • 1–1½ tsp salt

  • 1 tsp black pepper

  • 1–2 tsp garlic powder

  • 1–2 tsp onion powder

  • 1 tsp paprika (optional)

  • Fresh garlic or herbs (optional)


Instructions

1. Prep

  1. Remove roast from fridge at least 45–60 minutes before cooking (important for even roasting).

  2. Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C).

  3. Pat the roast dry and rub with olive oil and seasonings.


2. Sear by High Heat

  1. Place roast on a rack in a roasting pan.

  2. Put into the 500°F oven and roast for 7 minutes per pound.

    • Example: a 4 lb roast × 7 minutes = 28 minutes at 500°F.


3. Turn Off the Oven

  1. After the high-heat time is done, turn the oven OFF.

  2. Do NOT open the oven door.

  3. Leave the roast inside the closed oven for 2 hours.

This slow heat retention cooks the roast evenly and keeps it tender.


4. Rest & Slice

  1. After 2 hours, remove the roast.

  2. Let rest 10 minutes.

  3. Slice very thinly across the grain for the best tenderness.


Expected Doneness

Insert thermometer when you first remove the roast, not earlier.


Tips

  • Works best on lean roasts like eye-of-round, not fatty cuts.

  • Great cold for sandwiches.

  • Can add butter + herbs on top for richer crust.

  • If you want veggies in the pan, add them only during the initial high-heat sear—don’t open the door afterward.




ANOTHER INGREDIENTS
  • 1 eye of round roast (2 to 3 pounds)
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 500°F.
2. Season roast as desired; place on rack in shallow roasting pan. Do not add water or cover.
3. Place roast in the preheated oven and lower temperature to 475°F. Roast at 475°F for 7 minutes per pound.
4. Turn oven off and let roast sit in oven 2 1/2 hours. DO NOT OPEN OVEN DOOR DURING THIS 2 1/2 HOUR TIME PERIOD.
5. Remove roast and slice thinly. The roast beef recipe makes 4 to 6 servings. Enjpy it !

Roast beef with horseradish crust

Roast beef with horseradish crust

I can hardly believe that December is nearly upon us. Where has this year gone?? The cooler months invite us to indulge in comfort food such as meat and potatoes. You know, the kind of meal that truly sticks to your ribs, like this Horseradish, Garlic & Rosemary Encrusted Roast Beef.

I certainly find that my cooking habits shift between the fall/winter months and the spring/summer; and I am sure many of you experience the same. As the weather begins to cool, my family and I crave comfort food, and this recipe is not only straightforward but also one of our favorites.

In fact, I first shared this recipe back in 2011, and while the original photo was not the best, I have made this dish at least once, if not twice, each season, and it disappears so quickly that I have yet to capture a new image.

Horseradish, Garlic and Rosemary Encrusted Roast Beef, sliced

This year, I opted to prepare this roast beef during the week since I prefer not to work on weekends, which means I miss the opportunity to photograph our meals! My family was pleasantly surprised when I revealed that we would be enjoying one of their favorite dishes on a Tuesday.

How do you prepare Horseradish, Garlic and Rosemary Encrusted Roast Beef?

To create this dish, you will need a beef eye of round roast, which is a very lean cut of meat and is often available at a discount at your butcher or grocery store, along with garlic, prepared horseradish, fresh rosemary, extra virgin olive oil, Kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper.

First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a small bowl, mix together the garlic, horseradish, rosemary, oil, salt, and pepper until it forms a paste. Place your roast in a roasting pan and spread the mixture over the top of the meat.

Add water, beef broth, or red wine to the bottom of your pan to catch the drippings, which will allow you to make gravy if you wish.

Roast the meat until it reaches your preferred level of doneness (use a meat thermometer to check). My family enjoys our beef medium, so for a 2 ½ lb. roast, this takes about 1 hour.

I do not baste it while it cooks, allowing the horseradish mixture to create a crispy crust. Once you remove the roast from the oven allow it to rest for 10 minutes before carving to allow the juices to evenly distribute.





Roast Beef Ingredients

* 3 brown onions, peeled
* 50g unsalted butter
* 2 tbs green peppercorns
* 2 tbs bottled grated horseradish
* 1 tbs chopped fresh thyme leaves
* 1kg scotch fillet roast
* 1 tbs plain flour
* 40ml (2 tbs) olive oil
*
Horseradish & peppercorn cream
* 1 tbs green peppercorns, lightly crushed
* 2 tbs bottled horseradish
* 100ml (5 tbs) creme fraiche or sour cream

Roast Beef Recipe Instructions

1.First of all preheat the oven to 200°C.
2.And then cut the onions into thick slices and lay on the base of a large, greased baking dish.
3.Next is to place the butter, peppercorns, horseradish and thyme in a food processor and process until a smooth paste. Spread the paste over the top of the scotch fillet, then place on top of the onions. Sprinkle the meat with flour, then drizzle the meat and onions with the olive oil. Roast in the oven for 25 minutes. (This is for rare beef, cook for a little while longer if you prefer.) Meanwhile, to make the horseradish and peppercorn cream, combine all the ingredients in a bowl.
4.Sprinkle the beef with sea salt and serve on a bed of onions with the horseradish and peppercorn cream.
Enjoy the roast beef !

Christmas Roast Beef with Vegetables
Our customary Christmas dinner generally features a more premium cut of meat, although it tends to vary from year to year. Unlike my traditional recipes, Christmas provides an opportunity for me to unleash my creativity while celebrating the seasonal flavors.

Previous Christmases have inspired this dish, along with these other recipes (or ), my , and my . Each requires a bit of effort, but the delightful taste is always a rewarding outcome.

This year’s selection does not compromise on flavor, yet it is significantly simpler than it may seem. It is a beef tenderloin roast recipe that also functions as a sheet pan dinner, incorporating both the meat and vegetables into a single recipe. With the addition of a gourmet sauce, you will create an extraordinary holiday dinner that demands far less effort than anticipated.

What You Will Need
Whole Beef Tenderloin – Trimmed and tied. You can either do this yourself using butcher’s twine or request the butcher to assist you. Plan for 6 – 8 ounces per person.
Avocado oil – My oil of choice for general cooking; any vegetable oil you prefer will suffice. This will be used on the beef tenderloin and for roasting the vegetables.
Yukon Gold Potatoes – Ideal for making the best roast potatoes.
Beets – Whole red or golden beets.
Brussels Sprouts – Select sprouts that are of similar sizes.
Tarragon – Provides a flavorful enhancement to the potatoes.
Apple Cider Vinegar – Balances the bitterness of the Brussels sprouts and adds brightness to the beets.
Salted Butter – The key ingredient in the brown butter sauce.
Sage Leaves – Fresh sage imparts flavor to the brown butter sauce.
Kosher Salt – Elevates the flavors of each element in the dish.
Freshly Ground Black Pepper – A versatile seasoning, added according to preference.

How to Prepare Roast Beef Tenderloin with Sage Brown Butter Sauce and Winter Vegetables
This recipe encompasses not only a beef tenderloin dish but also a complete roast beef dinner. It is designed to ensure that everything is served simultaneously while still hot.

Begin by preheating the oven to 250ºF with the oven rack positioned in the center. The low initial temperature allows the beef roast to cook slowly without overcooking the interior. This method is optimal for achieving a perfect medium rare or your preferred temperature with minimal gray banding.
Prepare the beef tenderloin by generously seasoning it with salt and pepper (this can be done up to 24 hours in advance) and then tying it with butcher’s twine. 

If using, insert an instant-read thermometer into the thickest part and place the roast in an oven-proof skillet. Roast in the oven until it reaches 20º less than your desired final serving temperature. (Refer to the chart below for specific temperatures.)

While the beef tenderloin is roasting, parboil the potatoes. Peel, chop, and boil them just enough to soften. Drain and shake them in the colander to roughen the edges, then coat with cooking oil, tarragon, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and set aside.
Prepare the beets and Brussels sprouts by peeling, quartering, and slicing the beets. Halve or quarter the Brussels sprouts. Toss all the vegetables with olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper.

Once the beef attains its preferred internal temperature (115ºF for medium rare), confirm the internal temperature using an instant-read thermometer, again in the thickest section, and then take the tenderloin out of the oven. Cover it with aluminum foil and let it rest. Adjust the oven racks to split the middle and increase the oven temperature to 400ºF.

While the meat is resting, roast the vegetables in the preheated oven in 15-minute intervals. Begin with the potatoes, then after 15 minutes, add the beets, and 15 minutes later, include the brussels sprouts.

As the vegetables roast, prepare the brown butter sauce with fresh sage.

Two sheet pans displaying roasted potatoes, beets, and brussels sprouts.

When the brussels sprouts are placed in the oven, transfer the beef to a carving board. Clean the pan, then heat it over medium-high heat before searing the beef tenderloin on all sides.

Once the tenderloin is finished, move it to a carving board and allow the beef to rest for 5 minutes before slicing, while you toss the vegetables with two-thirds of the brown butter sauce.

Remove the butcher's twine, then slice the beef. Drizzle with the remaining brown butter sauce and serve alongside a generous helping of vegetables.

Utilizing the Reverse Sear Method for Roasting Beef Tenderloin
Although it may not be the most conventional method for cooking beef tenderloin, the reverse sear technique is not a recent innovation. From filet mignon to prime rib, it has become the sole method I use for preparing red meat in my kitchen.

To clarify, when preparing steak or roasts in the traditional manner, a chef first sears the exterior of the meat, then cooks the interior for the necessary duration to achieve the desired doneness. The searing is typically performed in a skillet or over direct heat on a grill, while the finishing process occurs in an oven or over indirect heat on the grill.

When employing the reverse searing technique, we essentially invert the traditional method. Initially, you raise the internal temperature to within 20º of your desired doneness, followed by searing the exterior to achieve a desirable crust. This approach ensures that the meat cooks uniformly, resulting in a narrower gray band (the section of meat between the seared exterior and the perfectly cooked interior) and a more evenly cooked roast overall.

Similar to the conventional method, it is essential to keep an eye on the internal temperature while the roast is in the oven. Utilizing a probe-style meat thermometer in conjunction with a 250º oven facilitates a low and slow cooking process for the interior. Once the meat reaches your preferred temperature, complete the cooking process by finishing it over medium-high heat on the stovetop in a cast iron skillet to achieve the ideal crusty surface.

Remember to remove the meat from the oven when it is 20º below your target finishing temperature. The searing process will raise the temperature by approximately 20º, resulting in delectable outcomes. 

Tips for Success
When attempting new recipes, there are always factors to consider, but these become even more critical when dealing with a premium cut of meat such as this beef tenderloin recipe, especially for a special occasion like Christmas.
Seek assistance from your butcher. If you notice a beautiful whole tenderloin on display, do not hesitate to ask the butcher to cut it to your required size, trim it if necessary, and wrap it in kitchen twine for you.
Do not overlook the importance of tying the meat. Securing the tenderloin not only helps maintain its shape but also allows you to fold over any thinner sections, ensuring that your roast has a consistent thickness from end to end, which promotes even cooking.
Cook the beef tenderloin to the doneness level preferred by the person who likes it the least cooked. When it is time to serve, you can easily sear slices of beef to achieve medium-well or well-done, but it is not possible to revert the beef from medium to medium-rare or rare.

Cooking beef tenderloin to a medium rare is optimal. This cut, which is also used for filet mignon, is recognized as the most tender portion of beef. It is a lean cut with minimal fat or marbling and does not improve with extended cooking times. However, it is important to respect individual preferences regarding the degree of doneness when serving meat.

Utilize an instant-read meat thermometer, also known as a probe thermometer, as it is the only reliable method to determine whether your beef is medium rare or well done without cutting into it. When preparing beef tenderloin, it is preferable to ensure proper cooking rather than risk overcooking.

Adjust the cooking times for vegetables to ensure that everything is prepared according to YOUR preferences. If you prefer your beets to be tender and your Brussels sprouts to be crisp, place the beets in the oven earlier and add the Brussels sprouts later.

Avoid overcrowding the sheet pans. While it is acceptable for the vegetables to share the same pans, ensure there is sufficient space for air to circulate around them, allowing the edges to become crispy.

Allow adequate time for the searing pan to heat up. If you intend to begin searing the beef 10 minutes before the vegetables are finished, place the pan on the heat at least 5 minutes prior. A HOT pan is essential for achieving the best sear.

Refrain from excessive handling of the meat during the searing process. Place the beef on one side and allow it to cook for a few minutes before flipping it. Once a proper sear is achieved, the beef will easily release from the pan. If you find yourself needing to scrape it off or struggle to lift it, this indicates that the pan was not adequately heated or the meat has not cooked long enough.

Do not be stingy with the brown butter. Prepare enough to drizzle over both the vegetables and the beef – this sauce is versatile and enhances the flavor of most roasted dishes.

Serving Suggestions
This roast beef tenderloin recipe, accompanied by winter vegetables and sage brown butter sauce, represents a delightful fusion of a Christmas roast and a sheet pan dinner. Slow roast and reverse sear the beef tenderloin, roast the vegetables, and then generously drizzle the entire dish with sage brown butter sauce for a memorable Christmas dinner.

How to Properly Store and Reheat
Leftover beef tenderloin?! Who would have thought such a thing existed? However, when preparing a whole tenderloin for the holidays, it is easy to misjudge the amount of food guests will consume, resulting in leftovers. These leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days (or even longer) if kept in an airtight container.

You can slice the beef thinly and transform it into some of the finest roast beef sandwiches you have ever experienced. Additionally, you can repurpose it for another meal. If you anticipate having leftovers, it may be wise to aim for a medium-rare doneness. This approach will prevent you from ending up with overcooked meat during the second serving.

One of my preferred methods for utilizing leftover beef tenderloin is to create a cottage pie, which is the beef equivalent of a shepherd’s pie. Although I do not have a recipe available at this time, you can substitute medium-rare roast beef for the lamb in this dish without any modifications. Treat the medium-rare beef in the same manner as you would the raw lamb: marinate it and then sear it before preparing the gravy. In fact, that lamb shepherd’s pie serves as an excellent alternative Christmas dinner on its own.

Notes
*Avocado oil or any other high-heat cooking oil is suitable. Look for an oil with a smoke point exceeding 400º.

Total cooking time for vegetables: potatoes – 45 minutes; beets – 30 minutes; brussels sprouts – 15 minutes. Potatoes should achieve a golden brown exterior with soft, pillowy centers. Beets and brussels sprouts should be tender yet not mushy. Adjust cooking times as necessary to achieve your desired texture.
