3The Cook

    • When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.

    • Place the roast on the grate directly over the coals, and cook until the roast starts to char, about 3 minutes on each side.

    • Put the roast in a 9” x 5” loaf pan, and pour the cream of mushroom soup into the loaf pan.

    • Add the vegetables to the loaf pan, and sprinkle the onion soup mix over the vegetables.

    • Add in the pepperoncini peppers and pour in the pepper liquid.

    • Reduce the grill temperature to 300ºF, and move the pan to the cooler side of the grate.

    • Close the grill lid, and cook until the roast is tender, about 3 hours and 15 minutes, until it reaches an internal temperature of 200°F on a digital meat thermometer.

    • Serve the roast and vegetables with the pan gravy.
