Title: Coffee Roast, 2.0
Post by: TMB on December 20, 2014, 11:23:43 AM
Well after the last coffee roast I tried I thought I'd do another but this time with a twist.   I only brined the last roast for 2 hrs which was good but I felt it could be better so I used the same basic brine but added 4.0 ozs of tomato paste to the brine.  Hoping it will kick the beefy flavor up a few knoches.

So here is where I am at this point, will cook Sunday and let you know how it turns out



5.25 lb    Eye of Round roast

The players for the brine

The brine all ready to go

The Roast trimmed and ready

Split it in half so I could fit it in bags

In the fridge @ 9:30 AM

Now the Tomato/Rub

Tee's M3 rub (4 Tbls)   and Tomato paste (8.0 oz ) , 2 Tbls olive oil
(http://i624.photobucket.com/albums/tt326/TMBs/roast/Coffeeroast2008_zpsc34084e9.jpg) (http://s624.photobucket.com/user/TMBs/media/roast/Coffeeroast2008_zpsc34084e9.jpg.html)

All mixed up and in the fridge so the flavors will meld. Will rub tonight and wrap till ready to smoke then sear

Tommy,
What about injecting some or your marinade into the roast?  That cut of meat could certainly use the liquid to help it.

Yep, I used a 12 oz size paste.   I figured I might need more rub since I'm doing two roast this time.

Art, I will inject one of them to see if it does help,  didn't really think about it but with two why not try  ;)

Thanks

Hope to start the cook around 2 or 3 PM

I pulled both roast patted dry (10:20 am)  and rubbed the first one with the rub/tomato mixture, the second roast I injected rubbed then wrapped. 

Both will sit in the fridge till 1 or 2 pm then I will smoke an IT of 122 to 125 then I will sear them on the Grill2Go grill with GrillGrates on the grill


Been in the brine for 24 hrs

Rubbed with the mixture + I did add 2 Tbs of Worcestershire Sauce

Art asked if I needed to inject the roast, so I decided to inject one to see if it helps
