Citrus Marinated Chuck Roast For The Grill Recipes

MARINATED BARBECUED CHUCK ROAST

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first nine ingredients. Pour 1/4 cup into a large resealable plastic bag; add roast. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 2-3 hours, turning several times. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade for basting., Drain and discard marinade. Prepare grill for indirect heat, using a drip pan. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack., Place beef over drip pan and grill, covered, over indirect medium heat for 1-1/2 to 1-3/4 hours or until tender, turning and basting occasionally with reserved marinade. Cut into thin slices.

CHUCK ROAST OR STEAK MARINADE FOR THE GRILL

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl or measuring cup. Microwave for about a minute. Stir to dissolve the sugar. Let cool.
• Put your chuck roast or steak in a gallon size zip-loc bag. Add marinade. Close the bag, but suck out all the air before completely closing bag. Put in fridge and marinate for 24 hours. Turn the bag a few times during that period. You can marinate the day of, or give it a couple days. 24 hours seems to work quite well.
• Heat your grill until it is as hot as possible. I have a Weber gas grill, and it takes a good 20 minutes to get that thing smoking hot. My Weber has a thermometer and I'm guessing the grill hits 700 degrees. Get the meat and toss it on the grill. I use a timer -- 3 minutes to sear side one, flip, sear side two for another 3 minutes. If your roast is over 2" thick, go 4 minutes per side. You really do want to sear the meat -- black and smoke is not your enemy -- lots of flavor comes from that. After searing, shut the center burner off and set the others to medium (indirect cooking method for charcoal people). Grill temp should settle down to about 350. At this point I do stick a remote grilling thermometer in the roast/steak. I pull a roast or steak from the grill when it hits about 132 degrees for medium rare. So if the thermometer reads 82 after I sear it, there are 50 more degrees to go, or 25 per side. So I do flip it again when it hits 107 degrees. If you don't own a remote grilling thermometer, buy one.
• When it hits 132 degrees pull it off the grill, put it on a plate and put it in the microwave. I say put it in the microwave for 2 reasons -- 2 Labrador Retrievers who will steal a perfectly cooked piece of meat off the counter in the blink of an eye. At any rate, let the meat sit for 10-15 minutes, which gives you time to do the grilled asparagus, corn, garlic bread, etc.
• This recipe will never fail. Sometimes the cut of meat fails, but no matter what, it will have amazing flavor. For decades I have only used this with a chuck roast on the grill, but gave it a whirl with a thick cut ribeye. Wife said it was the best steak she ever had.

MARINATED CHUCK ROAST

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the orange juice, soy sauce, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce; add the roast. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight., Pour the marinade into a Dutch oven. Bring to a boil; boil for 2 minutes. Add roast to the pan. Cover and bake at 325° for 3 to 3-1/2 hours or until the meat is tender. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Thicken juices for gravy if desired.

MARINATED GRILLED CHUCK ROAST RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Whisk the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, shallot, garlic, parsley, Dijon, sugar, beef bouillon, salt, pepper, and meat tenderizer in a bowl. Add 1/2 cup of water and stir again.
• Score the chuck roast with a sharp knife making 6 or 7 large cuts all over one side of the meat.
• Add the marinade to a plastic bag and then add the steak. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the steak. Place it on a plate to catch any drips or leaks and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, ideally overnight. You can even marinate for up to 24 hours. Since the meat is so thick it will not break down easily.
• Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for indirect heat. Adjust the heat on the active burner to medium-high heat (400 F to 475 F). Sear both sides of the meat over the hot side of the grill, flipping halfway through cooking time, about 10 minutes total.
• Move the meat to the cooler side of the grill, close the lid, and continue to cook to your liking or until the meat registers 130 F to 140 F (medium-rare) on an instant thermometer or probe, 20 to 30 minutes longer. You can also throw in a few wood smoke chips on top of the burners or charcoal for a nice smoky flavor.
• Remove the roast from the grill and allow to rest loosely covered with foil, about 10 minutes. Slice against the grain (do the best you can, the grains can change across the meat due to the configuration of the muscle). Serve with your favorite sauce like chimichurri . Enjoy.

GRILLED CHUCK ROAST

Steps:

• Heat a charcoal grill until it is red hot.
• Put chuck roast, with netting on, into a bowl.
• Rub the olive oil all over the chuck roast.
• In a small bowl, combine all of the remaining ingredients.
• Dump the spice mix onto the chuck roast, and rub all over the chuck roast until well-coated.
• Spread the coals evenly about in the bottom of the grill.
• Sear all sides of the roast until brown.
• After browned, set the roast on the top grate to one side and put a cast iron skillet half full of water on the lower grate. This catches the drippings from the roast to avoid flare-ups and also provides low, indirect, moisturized heat on the roast to finish it off.
• For good smoke, sprinkle a little bit of moistened mesquite on the coals that have been moved to the sides.
• After arranging things as described above, cover the grill leaving a small vent crack on top.
• You now have about 2 hours left to cook. During this time, you should check and turn the roasts twice. What you are looking for is dark brown over all sides with a 145 degree F center. Add more water if your bottom pan runs out.
• When you have reached the ideal internal temperature, remove the roast from the grill.
• Let the roast rest covered for several minutes.
• Cut in thin slices perpendicular to the grain.
