What each ingredient does

Rump of beef
Provides the meat whose juices are extracted, the entire source of the drink.
Coarse sea salt
Seasons the surface of the beef and lightly enhances its savoury flavour.

The step that matters

Warming the beef through on the grill. Warming the beef gently helps the juices loosen and flow, so more liquid can be pressed out. Overheating can tighten the proteins and make the juice less free-flowing.
