It’s easy to cook a roast on your BBQ with a predictable outcome every time :
Step 1 – Pre-heat your BBQ to 250 degrees.
Tip: Place your roasting pan or holder in the bbq whilst pre-heating.
Step 2 – Prepare your roast.
For this example we will prepare a lamb roast, (ensure your roast is completely de-frosted and is at room temperature)
Step 3 – Once heat has been achieved, and your roast is prepared place you roast in the middle of your BBQ ( under the burners which are off) and close the hood.
You now must turn your middle burners off, and then adjust the outer 2 burners to the desired temperature ( low setting ).
Tip: Use a drip pan to collect all those delicious juices.
With Lamb we adjust the outer burners to achieve a temperature of 180 degrees.
Step 4 – We now cook our roast the same time as if we were cooking our roast inside.
For Lamb, we allow 45 minutes per kilo, and please remember rest our roast for 30 minutes once done.
Tip: Baste the roast in the cooking juices 2-3 times. Use the balance of the juices to prepare a gravy - just add a little cornflour, stir and heat gently. You can even use the Side Burner for this.
Tip: Try using a meat probe or BBQ Thermometer to check the degree of doneness.
The good thing about BBQ Hoods, they turn your BBQ into an Oven, so what ever you can cook in an Oven, you now can cook in your BBQ.
Just remember when we cook with the lid down (indirect cooking) we have our inner burners off, and only use our outer 2 burners.
