Italian Beef
- 3 pounds Eye Of Round Roast
- 2 cups Water
- 1 Tablespoon Beef Base (I Prefer "Better Than Bouillon")
- 6 whole Hearty Italian Rolls
- 1 jar Your Favorite Giardiniera (I Used Mezzetta, 12-16 Ounce Jar)
- 1/4 cups Water
- 1/4 cups Red Wine Vinegar
- 1/4 cups Canola Oil
- 1 Tablespoon Dry Italian Seasoning
- 1 Tablespoon Sugar
- 2 teaspoons Garlic Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Tabasco Sauce
- Trim any silverskin from the the roast.
- Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a one-gallon zip-top bag, seal and shake well.
- Add the roast to the bag and seal, removing as much excess air as possible.
- Refrigerate the roast at least eight hours, or preferably overnight.
- Remove the roast from the marinade and let sit, covered at room temperature, for about 90 minutes.
- Start your grill and prepare for indirect cooking over a medium fire (325-350 degrees ).
- I used oak lump charcoal.
- Cook the roast over indirect heat until it reaches 135-140 degrees , (F), approximately two hours.
- Pour the marinade from the bag into a medium saucepan and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat.
- Let boil for five minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Note: The pan has to be large enough to hold the roast flat on the bottom.
- Add the water and beef base to the pan, reduce the heat, and simmer one minute.
- Remove the pan from the heat, cover and set aside.
- When the roast is done (135-140 degrees internal), remove it from the grill and add it to the pan.
- Cover and let rest 30 minutes.
- Once its rested, slice the beef very thin across the grain.
- Warm your rolls in the oven.
- Pile some beef on a roll, drizzle the meat and roll with the au jus, and top with some giardiniera (I chopped mine a little).
- Enjoy!
