Eye of Round Roast, Sour Cream & Onion Mash, & Roast Corn.
« Reply #-1 on: September 03, 2013, 01:21:07 AM »
It seems like it's been forever since I've posted a cook. The drumline & marching band (band camp), both kids going to the Ohio State Fair Band for two weeks,  my daughter getting ready for college... it's all kept me hopping!

One of the things I love about BBQ is being able to take a cheap cut of meat, some humble side ingredients, and turn them into something delicious.

The wife was in the mood for beef...

Enter the Eye of Round Roast; relatively inexpensive, lean, but a chance for some good beef flavor, and if cooked right, not too bad as far as tenderness goes.

The Mrs. picked up a couple that were just over 2 lbs each. I slathered them with some spicy brown mustard & a sprinkling of Jallelujah! Can I get an Amen? ;)


Black Walnut smoke - so good for beef.


About half way through we tossed on some roasting ears.


Now, enter the humble russet potato... whipped up into a rustic batch of skin-on sour cream & green onion mashed potatoes topped with cheddar & bacon, then onto the MAK to catch some smoke.


You know what else is in them taters? A lot of YUM, that's what!

Roasts pulled at about 132° I.T.  Time for a nice rest.


The 15- 20 minute rest really helps these roasts relax so they're tender when served.

Simple, humble, full of flavor... what I love about BBQ!


I hope you enjoy!

Cliff

Amen Cliff.  That looks real good. I would love to buy the more inexpensive pcs of beef, but more often than not they come out tough and chewy.........

Yep I was a little leery myself. I'd heard the trick is not cooking it past the upper end of medium rare and letting it rest for a good 15 - 20 minutes to relax.

These made me a believer. I was surprised at just how tender they were using that advice. Not quite as tender as say Tri-Tip, but definitely tender enough to enjoy, and I sure won't be afraid to do them again .

We're slicing up the leftovers for roast beef sammies this evening. :)

And I was just thinking that I hadn't seen or heard from you in a while.  Welcome back.  You just saved me a PM.  Love eye round.  I used to cook one on a rotisserie and all those juices "rolled around inside", keeping it super moist when served.  Good looking plate of food.
