Grilled Italian Beef Roast

 

3- to 4-pound boneless beef sirloin tip roast

1

to 2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil

1

envelope (0.7 ounce) Italian dressing mix

• 1 If using charcoal grill, place drip pan directly under grilling area, and arrange coals around edge of firebox. Heat coals or gas grill for indirect heat.
• 2 Brush beef with oil; sprinkle evenly with dressing mix (dry). Insert barbecue meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of beef.
• 3 Cover and grill beef over drip pan or over unheated side of gas grill and 4 to 5 inches from medium heat 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours or until thermometer reads 140°F (medium-rare). Cover beef with foil and let stand about 15 minutes or until thermometer reads 145°F. (Temperature will continue to rise about 5º, and beef will be easier to carve.)
