Baltimore Pit Beef With Tiger Sauce Food

BALTIMORE PIT BEEF WITH TIGER SAUCE

Steps:

• Sauce: whisk all ingredients together.
• Beef: combine all seasonings. Pat meat dry with paper towels and rub evenly over beef. Cover with saran wrap and let stand at room temp for at least 1 hour or refrigerated for up to 24 hours. (If refrigerated, let stand at room temp 1 hour before grilling). Before cooking, unwrap meat and rub with oil.
• Charcoal grill: Open bottom grill vents completely. Light a large chimney started filled with charcoal briquettes (100 briquettes; 6 quarts). When coals are hot, pour in an even layer over 1/2 grill, leaving other 1/2 empty. Set cooking grate in place, cover and heat grill until hot.
• Gas grill: turn all burners to high, cover and heat until hot.
• Clean and oil cooking grate. Place meat on the hotter part of the grill. Cook, (covered if using gas), turning often, until evenly blackened on all sides and the center of meat is 95-100 degrees (med rare); 30 minutes.
• Transfer meat to a cutting board, tent with foil and let rest 30 minutes. Cut roast in 1/2 lengthwise, then slice against the grain as thinly as possible. Divide sliced meat equally among Kaiser rolls, top with onion and Tiger Sauce and serve.

BALTIMORE BEEF BAD BOY

Steps:

• Combine the spices for the meat in a resealable 1-gallon plastic bag and shake to mix thoroughly. Add 1 piece of meat, shake it around in the bag, remove it and repeat with the second piece of meat. Add the first piece back to the bag, seal and marinate as long as you can in the refrigerator -- 24 to 48 hours is recommended. But if you can't wait, just go for it. It won't be as over-the-top, but it will still be really good.
• Make the sour cream-horseradish sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, horseradish, garlic, sea salt, and pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
• Twenty minutes before you plan on grilling, remove the meat from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature. Preheat a grill or a large grill pan to high.
• Grill the meat for 10 to 15 minutes (7 1/2 minutes per side), or until desired doneness. (It's best at medium rare, about 140 degrees F or 145 degrees F.) Set the meat aside, cover and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Slice the meat paper-thin with a knife or a countertop deli slicer. Divide the meat among 8 bread slices, spread some sour cream-horseradish sauce on each one, then add a few rings of onion slices and top with the rest of the bread.

BALTIMORE PIT BEEF SANDWICH

Steps:

• Combine ingredients for the rub in a bowl, and mix. Sprinkle 3 to 4 tablespoons all over the beef, patting it in. Place in a baking dish, and cover with plastic wrap. You can cover the beef with the rub for a few hours, but for maximum flavor, leave it for 3 days in the refrigerator, turning once a day.
• Prepare a hot grill. Grill beef 30 to 40 minutes, or until outside is crusty and dark brown and internal temperature is about 120 degrees (for rare). Turn beef often. Transfer to a cutting board; let it rest 5 minutes.
• Slice beef thinly across grain. Pile beef high on a roll or bread slathered with horseradish sauce. Garnish with onions, tomatoes and sliced lettuce. Serve.
