Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Beef roast (chuck or brisket)
- 1 cup Barbecue sauce
- 1 large Onion, sliced
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 2 sheets Aluminum foil
Instructions
Season the beef roast with salt and black pepper on all sides.
Spread a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil on a clean surface, then place the seasoned roast in the center of the foil.
Top the roast with sliced onions, minced garlic, and barbecue sauce.
Wrap the roast tightly in the foil, ensuring no liquid can escape. Use a second sheet of foil to double-wrap the roast for extra durability.
Locate a secure spot on your car's engine manifold, away from moving parts or excessive heat areas. This spot should have even heat distribution.
Place the foil-wrapped roast on the chosen spot and secure it with twist ties or wire if necessary to prevent it from shifting during the drive.
Start your road trip! For every 60 miles driven, your roast will cook approximately 1 hour. Total cooking time is about 4 hours for a perfect, tender roast.
After reaching your destination or the desired cooking time has elapsed, carefully remove the roast from the engine using oven mitts or heatproof gloves. Allow the foil to cool slightly before unwrapping.
Slice the roast and serve with your favorite sides. Enjoy a meal that was truly made on the move!
