Cooked the roast yesterday and chilled it overnight. I use a Neco meat slicer. $12.64 roast and I put enough in the freezer for 20 sandwiches.

I put a 6.5 lb eye of round in the oven for deli beef just an hour ago and then this video popped up on my feed! we do a 24 hour dry brine, then thyme and mushroom powder for seasoning. we also put lard or lamb/beef fat on top to melt and cover the surface of the meat while it cooks. so convenient to portion and freeze and pull out to use anytime. we get whole eye of round for 3.50 a pound. definitely beats retail deli prices .

This is NOT the type of meat for carnivore. Fat is number one. High fat low protein. High protein spikes insulin. People need to stop promoting leaner cuts of meat for the carnivore diet. The presenter and those responding need to get informed and start holding presenters accountable for sharing false information.

@@minimalisthypnotist2691I do not recall this being specified for a carnivore diet.

I just did a deli roast beef last week but did a sous vide cooking instead of oven cooking. It was my first experiment into this arena with a rump roast @ 133 degrees F for 40 hours. I have a low end deli slicer but with that, the meat was absolutely perfect. Had a number of good roast beef sandwiches and a French Dip dinner off of it. Went with rump because it was on sale. Next time, I'll try a round roast and see how the cuts compare.

I followed your advice. I bought the round roast and roasted it in my Ninja Foodi grill yesterday. I received my meat/bread slicer from Amazon a few days ago. I set it up ready to go this afternoon. The roast has been in the fridge over night and all morning. I tested the slicer on my homemade raisin bread first and it was AMAZING ! I cleaned off the slicer and got the roast out. I wish I could post a picture. WOW ! I love it ! So much that I bought a pork roast and a turkey breast (thanks to you, I bought the one with bone in and I’ll follow your directions to take out the bones. The boneless at Walmart was $13 total. With bone in, it was $2.15 per pound. It’s a little over 2 pounds. Can’t get turkey breast in the deli for that inexpensive.) I have the pork roast in the oven right now. I’ll get it to temperature, let it cool down for the hour you recommend and put it in the fridge overnight. The turkey will be roasted tomorrow or Saturday. You’ve created a monster ! I even posted all this on FB with the pictures ! Whether or not it’s cheaper which obviously it is, I’m have a GREAT time doing this ! It’s my new hobby ! Thanks again !

I've tried making roast beef for sandwiches in the oven and in my smoker, and both were very good, but the best method I've tried is sous vide. It takes longer, but the superior flavor and texture is worth the extra time. If you want the smokey flavor, cook it in the sous vide, chill it, then smoke it, then chill it again and slice it.

You make it look so easy! Thanks for the great vid.

Happy I found you,best Chanel in the meat world. Can't wait to chop my first chuck

Another great video! I appreciate your expertise and how it allows us to cheat the system

I was trying to look this a few days ago. Suddenly, here's this video!

Most outstanding!!!

We recently got a meat slicer - not the brand you are highlighting, but a very similar model. My husband was buying porcetta at a local deli for $8 per 200g (we're Canadian). I have been making Spam for years now, tho I feel no urgent need to slice it, but I also make bacon and formed ham. So pork is covered. I have been thinking we should branch out to beef, so this is a great start. One question: Can I freeze the sliced meat, or would it be better to slice what we can go through in a couple of days and leave the rest whole and frozen. BTW, I checked out your slicer on Amazon. With import duties and shipping it's about what I paid. Also, yours comes with an extra serrated blade. That's what sold me. The bread my husband likes best got to $5.79 per loaf. Even he agreed that was getting ridiculous. I make a sandwich loaf he likes, but of course it has to be sliced. That is not a problem anymore. Thanks for the vid. I think you said you made turkey loaf. I'm going to check that out next.

You the man! Thanks

Delicious!

new subscriber here, I'm actually doing this today! nice work!

Would love to do this just need a meat slicer

Thanks Brother

What temp did you cook it too??

Nice job 👍

I am waiting for this video to blow up. Your carnivore video has over a million views. That's comforting to me!! I have already watched this video but am back today for the slicer info and the meater.

Stopped by costco after work today. One of the things I picked up was eye round to do exactly this with for next week's lunches

I'd like to give this a try. Can you tell me what the internal temp of your roast beef was when you pulled it out of the oven? I might sous vide the roast beef since my oven cooks so unevenly. Thanks. I've learned so much from watching your videos.

I love this! Could you do a video on butchering a beef 1/4" trim inside round? Or lead me to a video you already did? Thanks, love your content and have been applying it in my kitchen. Got the Meat Your Maker #32 1.5hp grinder with foot pedal.

Let me give you a little tip. Under your slicer. Lay a sill pad or under each foot, a pot holder. It will slide around less than on your cutting board.

We love ours.

Do you place the cooked roast in the fridge covered (wrapped) or uncovered?

I live in the NE, I the winter it’s hard to use my infrared grill due to the cold climate, it makes it hard to grill. Where did u get that cooking pan with wire grade? Would that be a good idea to cook my Rib Eyes in the oven with? If not, what do you recommend? Ty, Russ

How about using eye round????

I do the same thing, just buy the whole round from Costco, and smoke it on my smoker. Makes the best roast beef. Even better if you wait for Costco to have it on sale!

Cook these things, sous vide and you get a very consistent done this that’s super tender. Easy to slice hot or cold. Just look up sous vide beef, round eye round on KZread and you’ll get directions.

I started doing my own deli roast beef. I've used eye of round, top round, and I just did a sirloin roast on Monday. The eye of round was ok. Top round was better and the sirloin was unbelievable! I was thinking about trying a tenderloin. I'm waiting for it to go on sale because I don't want to pay $25/lbs. But if I can get a tenderloin on sale for $15/lbs which is what deli roast beef costs, I'm thinking it would be really good, as it is very lean. My only question is if it would hold up to being sliced thin since its so tender already?

Just placed my order for the meat slicer on Amazon. They have a $30 off coupon.

Ross: What's Joey's favorite food? Monica: Sandwiches!!!

Maybe I missed it, but you talk about the 3 lbs being in the oven for an hour and a half. But for all the talk about temperature measuring devices? You never said what internal temp you had when you pulled the beef. I'm thinking you prolly had it at 130 Deg F when you pulled it. I'd like to try this, I've done top round before but it still wasn't as good as deli. I'm thinking I could get that internal beef to 110 Deg F, and inject butter and salt into it. Or do a 24 hour dry brine.

Well I tried it yesterday. But I used a sirloin roast 'cause Costco doesn't sell top or bottom round and the sirloin cap roast only cost me $7 / lb. I salted, peppered, and garlic powdered it and let it sit in the fridge for a day and then smoked it in an Big Green Egg smoker at 250 Deg F for 20 minutes and they cooked it at 350 for about an hour. Internal Temp when I pulled it was about 125 Deg F. Put the roast into the fridge overnight like you said and the next day I had no problem using an ordinary knife to cut that into thin slices. IT WAS DELICIOUS !!!

Was at the store yesterday, I have a german meat slicer this thing is a work horse, so Im at the deli and I dont want a sandwich, I just want a hunk of roast beef, freaking $150 bucks, that just for the beef, screw that, I have a komado big joe, I seen all sous vide stuff, but Im going low and slow with mesquite lump charcoal, cant wait to try this.

I have an idea for a video. How about slicing your own cheese steak meat. You dont have to call it a "philly", because I am pretty sure no one around me (Philly suburbs) uses rib eye for their cheese steak sandwiches. Select the meat, slice it, cook it and eat it. The packs of "shaved beef" around here are expensive and they dont specify what meat it is. Thanks for the entertainment. Keep up the great work.

you have to think that the butchers or stores that makes fresh roasts in house has to factor in costs to make those things and cost of people to cook and slice the food, so they might be going for the cheaper items like you are and charging 3 or 4 or even more just to cover the cost, but i do understand where you are coming from that it is easier to make your own at home so that you know the quality and what goes into the finished product.

I get the biggest round roast I can get, roast it this way, have a nice roast beef dinner with mashed potatoes and gravy, refrigerate the leftovers overnight, next morning run my thinnist chef knife across the steel a few times, then slice the leftovers real thin (it doesn't have to be pretty) for sandwiches. If there's leftover mashed potatoes and gravy I have the option of a diner-style hot open face roast beef sandwich.

highly unlikely they'll put your 'mystery meat' on their slicer. 118 is about as cheap as you can go on a slicer. I have a Waring slicer that was around 100-120 and it sucks. If you could get a used restaurant slicer that's not way too heavy, and you have a place to store it, that would be ideal (although that might start around $200-250).

@tdtommy196

4 ай бұрын

I always go real low, like 225 until I hit 110 internal. then I crank the oven up to 500 and when it hits 120 internal, I pull it out and tent it under foil. Carry over takes it to right around 135 + or - a couple degrees. Ends up with a nice crust and coast to coast pink in the middle. IF you ever feel like its going to overshoot your target temp by a lot during the rest, a good trick is after resting for 10 min or so, then just cut it in half. You might lose a little bit of juice, but it definitely will not dry out, and it just about instantly stops the carry over cooking.

What temperature did you pull it out at to make it "medium" ?

@@Truckerdaddy I use a Weber kettle. I use my baskets to make a direct and indirect side. That lets me throw a half chimney of fully lit charcoal in, with the vents closed almost all the way, and I get a nice steady 250-275 temp. I throw on 1 chunk of pecan. You don't need a lot of wood. Pecan, red, white or post oak, cherry, or hickory are all great. Pecan IMHO is the best because it's subtle. You don't want a ton of smoke taste. You will want a digital thermometer if you don't have one. I use a Walmart one, I think it's expert grill? It has 4 probes. I stick one in the meat, and I ball up some foil and poke it with the other probe and plop that down on the grates on the indirect side so I know the grill temp. I let the meat cook indirect to 110. Then I pull it off, add some more charcoal, and open the bottom vent. Keep the lid off for a few min to get that sucker nice and hot. Then I throw the meat back on the indirect side. Cover with all the vents wide open. You should now be at like 450 degrees at the grates. Cook til it hits 120 internal. Then pull the meat out and tent it loosely under foil for at least 30 min. That should get you to 135ish internal. If you think it's going to get up over 140, just untent it and cut it in half. The carry over cook will stop. You should get coast to cost pink. You may or may not see a slight smoke ring just under the crust. Either way it will have a noticable smoke flavor. Again, you need to be stingy with the wood. Too much smoke will make it taste like crap. Been there, done that! A lot of people finish it with a direct sear instead of on the indirect side. That's fine. It's a better crust that way, but I like to use fresh herbs in my rub, and they burn if I do that. So if you just do like salt and pepper or a BBQ rub, feel free to sear it instead.

And in future videos, feel free to round up to the whole dollar. No one is going to call you a liar if you say it cost $20 / pound and the label reads $19.99. Besides, in some states, South Dakota for example, it's subject to the sales tax, so it will go over that value. Anyway, it all looks good. Keep up the good work.
