Ingredients

  • ½ cup apple juice
  • 1 tablespoon prepared yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons granulated garlic
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 ½ pound Bottom Round Roast
  • ¼ cup Sweet Garlic and Onion Rub

Instructions

  • Using a small sauce pan, add apple juice, mustard, butter, brown sugar, garlic and salt. Whisk together and heat over low heat just until heated through and brown sugar is dissolved. Do not boil. 
  • Remove from heat and cool slightly.
  • Inject the marinade into the roast using an injector. Rub any remaining marinade over the outside of the roast.
  • Sprinkle with dry rub and set aside while you prepare a grill fire.
  • Prepare the grill to a low fire, about 300° using hickory or pecan for smoke flavor.
  • Cook the roast over indirect fire with the grill closed for about 30 minutes per pound. 
  • Check the roast using a digital meat thermometer, cooking until desired doneness. We pulled ours at about 140°.
  • Place the roast on a cutting board or sheet pan to rest for 15 minutes before slicing. 
  • Use a sharp knife to make thin slices. 

Notes

Store sliced roast in a zip top bag or wrapped in several layers of plastic wrap in the refrigerator up to 4 days. 
Reheat roast in a skillet coated with olive oil or add a few tablespoons of beef broth or eater. Cover and cook over medium heat 2 minutes, turn the slices and cook another 2- 3 minutes until heated through.
