Recipe Notes
Marinate the beef overnight for the deepest herb flavor and the most tender texture. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the roast reaches 88°C (190°F) before removing it from the grill. Allow the meat to rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing to retain its juices. Serve with grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or fresh chimichurri for a complete Argentine-inspired barbecue.Wine Advice
