Ok. Wife got an after holiday great price. Four pounder. Want to do it on the pellet grill. Never have done one. What do I do? mtmuley
 
You can cook it the same way as in oven. I cooked my last one at 275 until 110 and then turned up to 375 to take it to 120 on my pellet grill to finish medium rare. There will be some carryover. If you want it more done, bring it higher than 110 before turning the temp up or finish at a higher temperature.

Note: I just use Kosher Salt and Coarse Pepper and cook it over a pan with grate to capture some liquid for au jois. That's only going to be somewhat successful because the liquid will cook off.
 
Plenty of tips on the web on how and what temp to run. I have a stick burner so I have to work to keep a steady temperature. I shoot for 225-250 until it hits 125-130 depending on how the rest of the eaters like their meat. Let it rest and slice.

Rub liberally with cavenders Greek seasoning.

Put on a cookie sheet, or in a big flat cake pan.

Roast at 350° till about 120° in the middle.


With practice you'll be able to recognize the proper doneness by sight.

Big chunks of taters, and carrots, and onions surrounding it on the baking pan end up being delicious, and add to the au jus drippings.
 
24 hour dry rub with salt and black pepper. Very liberal amounts.

An herb and garlic infused mustard rub prior to smoking.

Smoke at 200-225 till internal hits 110-115. Pull, let rest for 10 minutes. Crank up your cast iron or stainless steel with a stick of butter, at least.

Sear it on all sides for a minute or two. Bring inside and let rest for 15-20 minutes. Slice and serve.

This was a rare moment where I wasnt extremely critical of what I had just produced. I little over seared, and a tad overcooked IMO. But the taste was off the charts. It was a huge hit with everyone.
