1.5 kg top sirloin cap roast
COOKING ON CHARCOAL GRILL OR GAS GRILL
Preheat the grill to 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit) for indirect heat cooking.
Once the top sirloin cap roast has reached the desired temperature, score the fat. Make cuts first in one direction and then diagonally to create small diamond-shaped patterns. Be careful not to cut too deep, avoiding piercing the meat.
Rub the roast generously with oil and garlic, then sprinkle it with salt and pepper all over.
Now, place the roast on the grill and cook it using indirect heat for approximately 45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 56 degrees Celsius (133 degrees Fahrenheit) for a medium doneness, which is our preferred level.
Remove the meat from the grill and let it rest uncovered on a cutting board for 20-25 minutes before slicing.
COOKING ON WOOD PELLET GRILL
Take the top sirloin cap roast out of the refrigerator about an hour before grilling. Trim it and remove any excess fat or sinew from the backside.
Preheat the pellet grill to 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit) using your preferred wood pellets.
Score the fat side of the roast, being careful not to cut into the meat. Rub the culotte with a little olive oil and crushed garlic, then season it with salt and pepper to taste.
Place the prepared roast on the grill over indirect heat, away from the heat source. Insert a meat thermometer to monitor the internal temperature.
Cook the roast for approximately 45 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 56-58 degrees Celsius (133-136 degrees Fahrenheit). If needed, you can sear the culotte over direct heat to achieve a nice browning.
Once the desired internal temperature is reached and the culotte is nicely browned, remove it from the grill and let it rest uncovered for a minimum of 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
