Cooking for 4 people

Ingredients

  • 2.5 lb. chuck roast
  • 1 tbsp. beef bouillon powder (substitute crushed bouillon cubes)
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 small onion, quartered
  • 2 carrots, quartered
  • 0.5 pound baby potatoes
  • 1 tbsp. onion soup mix
  • 4 pepperoncini peppers, plus ⅓ cup liquid from the jar

1 Food Prep

First, prepare your vegetables by quartering 1 small onion and 2 carrots. The baby potatoes can be left whole.

Then season both sides of the chuck roast with the beef bouillon powder.

2 Grill Prep

Fuel: We recommend Kingsford® Original Charcoal Briquets

Method: Two-Zone Method

Temp: 400°F (Medium Heat) & 300°F (Low Heat)

3 The 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.
