Beef on Weck - eye round roast

Publix had a great looking eye round and some kaiser rolls so the long awaited beef on weck for a Bills game was the play that called itself. 



Here is a good framework of the recipe.

My goal was “everything on the egg”. So for the first part, I invented a patent pending double indirect method that has been heretofore never been configured on an egg (kidding).  it’s a cast iron skillet levitating above the plate setter inside the pswoo.  220ish for 1.5 hours got me to 115 internal. 



then removed the indirect and put that cast iron skillet on the grid. the temps were 300-400 pretty quickly and seared all sides a few minutes each until internal of 125. one tip i like is to use the pig flipper secured in the closed lid for searing the small sides. 



while the beef rests its time to upgrade the kaiser rolls to kimmelweck. a coat of melted ghee then sprinkle coarse salt and caraway seeds.  also dropped some beef broth in the skillet. 



the rest climbed up to 135 with no problem. back inside for slicing, dipping the buns in au jus and adding a little creamy horseradish.  the plated pic lighting was a let down so will see if i can get a better one with tomorrows sandwich. 





halftime is over gotta go
