Equipment & Fuel

Directions

1. Prepare Drum smoker or other pit for indirect cooking at 275°F.

2. Remove picanha roast from the packaging and trim away sinew or silver skin from the meat side.  Score the fat side using a sharp knife: make shallow cuts across the fat in one direction spacing the cuts about 1” apart; then make the same shallow cuts in the opposite direction.

3. Season the picanha with rub on all sides.

4. Place it on the pit fat side down and insert a probe thermometer into the thickest portion to monitor internal temp.  

5. Remove from the pit once the internal temperature reaches 122-125°F.

6. Rest the picanha loosely covered in foil for 10-15 before slicing against the grain.
