Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein:
- 4 pounds (1.8 kilograms) beef rump roast
Spices and Seasonings:
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Mrs Dash Seasoning Blend
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon granulated garlic
Salt Blend:
- 1 teaspoon Lawry’s Season Salt
- 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
Instructions
- Position the rump roast on a clean cutting board or baking sheet with raised edges to capture any escaping meat juices.
- Create a robust seasoning blend by thoroughly mixing brown sugar, Mrs. Dash, smoked paprika, granulated garlic, Lawry’s Seasoned Salt, and coarse sea salt in a small mixing bowl until completely integrated.
- Massage the spice mixture comprehensively across all surfaces of the rump roast, pressing firmly to ensure maximum seasoning adherence.
- Allow flavor development by refrigerating the seasoned meat overnight, or alternatively, let it rest at room temperature for approximately 60 minutes to enable spice penetration.
- Ignite the grill and stabilize temperature between 250°F to 300°F (121°C to 149°C), then carefully position the roast on the grates for slow cooking between 1 to 1.5 hours until the internal temperature reaches 140°F to 145°F (60°C to 63°C).
- Transition the partially cooked roast into a Dutch oven or heavy braising pan, introducing 1 cup (240 milliliters) of liquid such as beef broth, coffee, or water to enhance moisture and tenderness.
- Transfer the covered pan into a preheated oven at 325°F (163°C), continuing cooking for approximately 1.5 hours until the internal meat temperature stabilizes at 145°F (63°C).
- Extract the roast from the oven and loosely shield with aluminum foil, permitting a 10-minute resting period to redistribute internal juices and maximize flavor concentration before slicing.
Notes
- Unlock the magic of a tender, flavor-packed roast that transforms an ordinary cut into a culinary masterpiece.
- Select rump roast for its lean profile and ability to soak up rich, complex seasonings during slow cooking.
- Marinate overnight to infuse deep, mouthwatering flavors that will have everyone asking for your secret recipe.
- Embrace the low and slow cooking technique that breaks down tough muscle fibers, creating impossibly tender meat.
- Maximize juiciness by letting the roast rest after cooking, allowing those delicious internal juices to redistribute perfectly.
