One week I purchased a pork butt roast that had not been trimed properly by my butcher. He gladley corrected the mistake but I kept the fat...thinking that I would do something with it. Well, this last weekend I purchased a Beef Tip Roast....I wanted to create a recipe for the gilling contest. I gave this idea a try and it was really good. I hope you give it a try and enjoy it as much as my family did.

How To Make butt fat beef tip

  • Roast with rub
    Step 1
    Let Beef Tip set at room temp while preparing rub. Combine in a small bowl: Sea Salt, Black Pepper, Oregano and Onion Powder. Rub the roast with the rub evenly distributing on roast. Top with Rub with Parmesan. Cut the Garlic into 4-6 pieces and cutting a slit into the roast, insert the garlic into the roast.
  • Beef Tip with Butt Fat covering and tied to stay in place.
    Step 2
    Gently cover the top and sides of the roast with the Butt Fat trim. Using Butcher string securly tie the Butt Fat onto the roast.
  • Beef Tip slowly cooking on grill sitting in a pan to catch the jucies of the Butt Fat as they melt.
    Step 3
    Heat your grill to apx 300 degrees, using indirect heat method. Place your roast in a simple pan; I used a pie tin. And slowly cook until desired doneness. We like medium rare which took about 2hrs on our gas grill.
  • Resting the roast
    Step 4
    Once cooked to your level of doneness. Remove from the grill and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes.

    Meanwhile using the jucies from the roast in a sauce pan, bring to a simmer. Add wine and cook of at a simmer for 5min. Add 2Tbl flour and stir to create a rue; slowly adding beef broth. Simmer on low for 3min before serving.
