3lbs Top Round, BBBR Slow cooked on the GMG Seared on the Kettle. Smoked Tomatoe Soup using recipe from Henrik CookBook. Beef was a bit dry, Potatoes were ok,Soup was delicious.

Beef taken to probe tender? I'd recommend injection for a little more moisture. Great cook, thanks for sharing.

[Pirate Scott]

Over cooked it, Neighbors stopped by while I was searing it.

[Henrik]

What an honor! What temp did to take it to (internal temp)?

[Pirate Scott]

Henrik 125* then I Seared it to 135* ( My wife prefers Medium Well) I have done this once on the kettle and it was better. However I wrapped this one and left it in the oven with potatoes while the neighbors were visiting and it over cooked. It will make great Sandwiches etc...

[Henrik]

Cool, thanks. Like you say, sammies coming up :-)

The soup looks great! How long did you dry-brine the beef?

[Pirate Scott]

kmhfive I Brined it Overnight when I bought it then I froze it in a foodsaver bag, took it out of freezer Saturday.

I've done a few eye of rounds, and while the taste is always great they're just a tad dry and tough...but affordable! They're great practice for a more expensive prime rib cook.

I have been using them for practice cooks +- 8 and they are dryish but with a heavy dose of Ground pepper rub they make great cold meat sandwiches.

[Pirate Scott]

Huskee you nailed it with the Practice, I have not done a Prime Rib on the Grill yet. Still building the Courage er.. uh.. I mean Skills....
