Sirloin of Beef
Ingredients
Directions
Choose a well-covered sirloin, not exceeding 24 pounds.
Cover the meat with paper for 1 hour to prevent over-browning.
Ensure the fire is not too sharp to avoid burning the outside before warming the inside.
Just before removing from heat, sprinkle fine salt over the meat.
Serve very hot with gravy.
