Mustard Roasted Beef on the Weber

What you'll need

A kg fillet beef or roast beef
2 fresh garlic cloves
Salt and pepper
Butter
Coleman's Wholegrain Mustard
Olive oil
Fresh rosemary
A deep roasting pot
A large braai dish (preferably metal)

Place a couple of charcoal briquettes evenly on two sides of your Weber and start the fire
Put your deep pot on the stove and heat the butter
Finely chop and crush your garlic cloves
Rub the outside of your beef with about 2 tablespoons olive oil
Rub salt and pepper well into the meat
Pop the beef into the hot pot and braise all sides until golden brown
Remove from the heat and allow to cool

Place your braai dish on the fire and add a good dollop of butter and some coarsely ground salt
The fire is ready when the butter melts but doesn't sizzle in the braai dish
On the top side / fatty side of the beef, evenly spoon the crushed garlic
With a teaspoon, spread the wholegrain mustard about half a centimeter thick across the hole fatty side of the meat.
Carefully place the beef, mustard side up, into the braai dish.
Close the lid of the Weber and allow to smoke for 2 hours or a little longer if you prefer your meat more well done.

Make sure to check on the fire, if it should be losing heat, add two briquettes on either side.

Serve with lemon butter seasonal veg, roast potatoes and rice or cous cous, or save it and eat it cold with salad and rye bread.

Enjoy!
