Ingredients

Method

Ingredients

  • 1kg beef sirloin
  • Oil, salt + pepper

You could also add a premade spice rub of your choice

Method

  1. Pat the sirloin dry with a paper towel.
  2. Using a sharp knife shave off some of the hard external fat layer if desired, then cut 8-10 deep slashes through the fat.
  3. Cover and set aside to come up to room temperature. 
  4. Preheat your BBQ to medium-high heat.
  5. Rub the sirloin with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the sirloin on the BBQ fat side down to render the fat, then flip, cover and cook until it has reached your desired level. 
  6. • For rare: Cook for 10-15 minutes or until very soft to the touch with an internal temperature of 49°C to 55°C. 
    • For medium rare: Cook for 15-20 minutes or until tender, springy and soft with an internal temperature of 55°C to 60°C. 
    • For medium: Cook for 20-25 minutes or until tender and springy with some resistance with an internal temperature of 60°C to 65°C. 
    • For medium-well: Cook for 25-30 minutes or until firm, with an internal temperature of 68°C to 74°C. 
    • For well done: Cook for 30-35 minutes or until very firm, with an internal temperature of 77°C

  7. Set aside to rest for 15 minutes before slicing against the grain.

Top tip: By cutting deep slashes through the external fat layer allows the meat to cook more evenly and results in a tasty caramelised crust.

Pick up a premade spice mix instore and rub it into the sirloin along with the oil, salt and pepper for a tasty fuss-free flavouring.
