Sirloin Roast in Coffee brine with tomatoe/M3 rub (picture heavy)

Looks like a winner to me. Coffee and beef do go hand in hand..........coffee brine...outrageous.........

Very interesting way of brine meat . the meat looks very moist .
can you taste the coffee ?

Not really, but then again it was only in for two hrs not the twelve hrs I wanted.   The rub with tomato paste did help out a lot and Tee's M3 was wonderful.   Next time I will brine for the twelve hrs and rub tomato with M3 again.
 
It did have a very nice mild smoke flavor and little crunchy bits on the out side.   This is a very good roast and I look forward to lunch!!
 
The idea of letting it rest before the sear came from America's Test Kitchen.  They had a sirloin roast article similar to this about a year ago in their magazine.   

Thanks for the info

Next time I'm mixing the tomato (will use tomato sauce)   into the brine let it go for 12 hrs then rub with tomato paste and M3 rub.
Love to try new things
