The sirloin tip roast comes from the hind quarter of the beef. It actually consists of several parts, including: the solid part, the lid and the ball joint.
It is a fairly lean piece of meat that contains little fat and is very tender.
The preparation
Although this piece of meat lends itself perfect for quick preparation at high temperatures, we give it a different twist. An Asian twist.
We first rub the meat with an oriental dry rub. Therefore we put a little bit of sesame oil on the meat. For the taste, of course, but this also makes the rub stick well.
We then let the meat cook indirectly on the barbecue to a core temperature of 50 °C.
While the meat is resting, we prepare the sambal relish. You are able to use different types of sambal for this. We like badjak for this dish.
Finally, carve the meat and pour the relish on top of the slices.
