Coffee Brined Roast Beef

Pulled a bottom round out of the freezer and asked my wife what her requirements were. We like to play this game... she tells me she wants to have a crust that she has to crack through to eat it. I oblige.

Did a french press of dark asia pacific coffee. Added equal parts water, EVOO, Worstechire, and a 1/2 cup of salt/sugar/brown sugar. Soaked it overnight.

Coated generously with fresh cracked pepper and Rufus Teague Steak Rub. I used a bit too much of the Rufus Teague. It's a little more salty than I expected.

1 hour on the rotisserie at 350* and pulled it at 137* Turned out beautifully tender with a nice crust even the boys liked. Just a few spots were too heavy. You live and learn.

Leftovers were as good if not better than the original dinner.

That is awesome and the one things Rich and I have learned is the meat is always better the next day.
 
Great roast beef! That spicy bark is really good mixed in with the beautiful red meat in the middle. Great looking cook!
 
Great looking meal and leftovers.

(Also a fan of the Komodo Dragon blend)
 
Great looking roast Luke. I like spicey.

I agree with Barb, bbq tastes soooo much better the next day.
