BBQ Roasts

[bluesnow]

I've cooked a lot of roasts on the BBQ over the years. I almost always use indirect heat (burner on the left, meat on the right) and I always monitor the internal temperature using a wireless thermometer. Here is my usual setup.

This was a 2.75 LB/1.25 kg top siloin cooked at 300F for 2 1/2 hrs. I've done this often enough and plotted enough graphs to be able to predict within 5 minutes when my roasts will be done the way I like them.

You can see in the graph how the internal temperature rises on a curve. The curve is always the same shape and the slope is dependent on the BBQ temperature and the size of the roast. (some people think I have too much time on my hands!)

thats all well and good but why does the meat have a foil umbrella?

[bluesnow]

I wrap a piece of foil around the cable for the thermometer to shield it from heat. I melted one once and had a very hard time getting a replacement.

remind me, what is the question ? or are you just showing off !!

[bluesnow]

Not sure what you mean. If it's about the thread in general . . .

it does look very very tastey, makes my mouth water mmmmmmmmm (dribbles). Its a gas bbq is it? Last time i used a gas bbq all the food tasted of the gas it was horrible. Would be nice to be able to cook like you can, is experience i suppose.

[bluesnow]

Tasted like the gas? I've never experienced that. I have used a propane BBQ for almost 40 years (not the same one of course).

[dirk8837]

yeah i dont know why but everything cooked on it tasted as if the flame had gone out and i'd just blasted the food with gas, was not nice at all

[bluesnow]

I pass gas when I BBQ.

[dirk8837]

, just dont direct it at the flame

[woody231]

all i meant was that you don't seem to ask a question, and the roast looks good to me, you can ask me to one of your bbq !!

Do not know why, but everything is cooked flavor as the flame has gone out, I just hope gas fried food, is not very good...
