Pit Beef Question
Pickle
Posts: 74
Just picked up 2 Sirloin tips from Publix, but the largest they had were about 2.5 lbs. Will this work for Pit Beef cook?

sure. . . it won't take long to cook though. . .i roast pit beef at around 375 degrees, so those won't take more than around 1 - 1 1/2 hours to be done ...just make sure you slice em real thin. . ..

Thanks Max. Just got my Slicer last week. Been looking for a way to try it out.

Max.
What are you using for a slicer??? Hi to Spawn.

Do you have your own computer with you or did the pub install one for you? :laugh: :laugh:

i picked up an electric slicer from spiegles catalogue a few years ago for about 100 bucks. ...don't ask me the brand, i can't remember. ...its not the best in the world but it works ok. ...and makes good work of eyes of the round or round roasts for pit beef thats for sure. ..heck, its about the only thing i use it for. ..and i 'shave' the meat for pit beef. ..so its good, not looking for pretty slices for this one. .. .
spawn is good, i'll say 'hi' . ..
back at ya!! :cheer: -
i think he borrows the one from the two girls in the dressing room :woohoo:
just has to stuff a couple of extra 'fives' in their g-strings every afternoon as compensation. . heee -
Max,

I noticed that your handle is the same as someone from Houston. Are you the same "Pickle?"
I know the one from Houston does not post often but she has been active in the past.
If you are not the same person you may want to reconsider your handle.

375/400 for pit beef, 275/300 makes a nice delibeef if chilled before slicing.fukahwee maineyou can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it

What is the best cut for pit beef. I put two chuck roast on a little while ago to try pulled beef. I slathered and rubbed and now cooking at 250. any recommendations?
-
chuck roast has a lot of fat and stuff ...probably works better for pulled beef than pit beef. ..i think i'd let that go at 250 for a while, then put it a pan with some liquid (bottle of good hearty beer maybe) seal it tight with HDAF till its fork tender, then pull it and mix it with some bbq sauce for pulled beef. .. .
pit beef is usually made with a good lean roast beef type cut, like eye of the round, bottom or top round roast beef cut, seasoned heavily with a rub of your choice ( i like dizzy cowlick or red eye express), then roasted at fairly high temps, say 375, either direct or indirect, for a shorter period of time and pulled out of the fire while its still rare/medium rare in the center and then very thin sliced (shaved) to fool it into being tender. .. served on kaiser rolls with raw onions and either horseradish or bbq sauce. . -
I am not the same person. Have never seen another Pickle out here, and I am surprised that they would allow 2?
-
Whatever you do,pull it off the heat at NO MORE than 125 Internal Temp!!!
-
I've been here so long I'm not sure. Dang old guy with no sense of humor, butt I'm trying. :evil:
Hmmm, yes my own puter. :laugh:
Cheers,

Ha,
If I got in the dressing room you would probably not ever hear from me. :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
Cheers,
Bordello -
Thanks Max,
Appricate the info.

Bordello -
This was great. Made sandwiches with Vidalias and Horseradish sauce. Very nice, and plenty of leftovers. Thanks Max!
