Notes

Make sure to bring the roast to room temperature before grilling for even cooking. Don’t skip the resting period; it’s essential for juicy meat. If you have leftovers, store in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat gently to maintain moisture. Consider making homemade beef stock with leftover bones.
