Happens to the best of usLeave the shaft inserted .
I pulled it out the first time , and lost a lot of juice .
I'm going to wrap the roast in foil while it is still on the shaft and bring it inside to rest!Happens to the best of us![]()
"Larding" is a term for inserting fat strips to leaner meat cuts before roasting.
I got a small rib roast that is a touch lean but has enough fat to lard in for the fake prime juiciness.
Don't eat ham anymore, but I wasn't fond of the cuts with a clove pushed in the puncture. The concentrated flavor was too much for me.
Garlic mellows as it cooks, but I truly feel you would do better with a garlic horseradish sauce to let the eaters choose the level of flavor.
You might want to slice the garlic into smaller slivers to poke in your slits. I've done this and didn't think the garlic flavor was very strong. But I like garlic (have already used my 50 heads I picked last spring). The horseradish sauce is a good idea though.I hear ya on the 20-degree weather. Christmas day here is supposed to be 48-degrees, so, we'll see. Fortunately it is cryovaced and label says good until 30 December so if the forecast doesn't look right I can adjust my plan - Monday and Tuesday (59 and 60-degrees) might be better.
I've watched a couple decent YouTube videos on butchering a whole top sirloin so I think I should be able to trim it into a nice huge roast, possibly with a few small steaks and some ground meat left over.
I am curious - what is your opinion of slitting and inserting whole garlic cloves here and there?
Definitely planning on a sour-cream/mayonnaise/horseradish sauce for sure.You might want to slice the garlic into smaller slivers to poke in your slits.

Good luck.
Wow...it you're in Bastrop you're only about an hour from me. Matter of fact I was there early yesterday morning for an inspection. Small world I guess.The label says tri tip but is is a whole prime top sirloin for $7.99/pound which is not bad compared to everything else they're selling in HEB Bastrop right now.
Not in Bastrop but it is the closest place to shop without driving into the dreaded Austin.Really looking forward to seeing the final outcome. When I started buying subprimals from CPB, it was an interesting process learning how to break them down. There are several different ones I get and all are different. Keeps things fun

Amen to that! Driving in Austin is considered a "contact sport" We only brave it for concerts and our yearly Truluck's fix!Not in Bastrop but it is the closest place to shop without driving into the dreaded Austin.

I'm with you guys 100%. Unfortunately though I'm in Austin almost every day. The upside is that I go in very early, ahead of the idiots, get my stuff done, and am gone before the sun comes up.Amen to that!

The way people drive is a window into a person's soul, and the soul of their community...I'm with you guys 100%. Unfortunately though I'm in Austin almost every day. The upside is that I go in very early, ahead of the idiots, get my stuff done, and am gone before the sun comes up.
I saw a bumper sticker on a car going down 35 not long ago. It said "I'm a veterinarian so that gives me the right to drive like an animal". That really got me to thinking about how many proctologists there in this town

I got hit by an old ass lady driving a car this morning in the dollar general parking lot. Landed on her hood. I'm ok but the lady got out and started yelling at me. Was hard for me to remain calm and not cuss out a female senior citizen lolThe way people drive is a window into a person's soul, and the soul of their community...
Actually, my bellwether on an individual's auto-driving habits is strongly linked to how they handle a shopping cart in the grocery store. You know, annoying things like speeding around blind corners to slam into you, or leaving their cart in the center of a narrow aisle because it's convenient to their needs and right-of-way be damned!The way people drive is a window into a person's soul, and the soul of their community...
