Smoked Roast Beef

Before you start smoking it’s better to leave any fat on the outside of the roast, it will protect the meat and keep it juicy. Also, we would like you to use good quality ingredience for this recipe, you don’t want this beautiful meat cut to have a poor taste because of low quality wrap or bbq sauce.

This time we wanted the piece of meat to be as tender as possible, therefore we decided to smoke the meat at 100°C. The lower the temperature in smoker is, the more tender the meat will turn. It took over 4 hours – but it was worth it! The meat was perfectly juicy and tender from inside and crispy from the outside.

After the roast is ready, we wrapped it in the foil and let it rest for 10 to 20 minutes before slicing.
