Method
- Massage the beef roast with olive oil.
- Insert a probe thermometer into the center of the meat.
- Place the beef on the highest part of the BBQ grill or griddle. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 50°C (122°F).
- Meanwhile, bring a pot of salted water to a boil and blanch the agretti until al dente. Immediately transfer them to ice water to stop cooking and preserve the green color.
- Drain the agretti and season with salt, freshly ground black pepper, lemon juice, and extra-virgin olive oil.
- For the rainbow chard (yellow and red), season with salt and oil, add a splash of water, and sauté briefly in a pan.
- Slice the sweet onion and grill on the BBQ with a little salt and oil until tender.
- Make the mayonnaise: separate the eggs and use only the yolks. Add a pinch of salt and white wine vinegar. Slowly drizzle in extra-virgin olive oil while whisking until emulsified.
- Chop the Cantabrian anchovy scraps and sun-dried tomatoes (drained from oil). Fold them into the mayonnaise.
- Once the beef reaches 50°C, remove it from the BBQ and let it rest on a wire rack so the juices drain away from the bottom.
- Grill slices of bread on the BBQ for bruschetta. Rub with a clove of fresh garlic and top with crushed piennolo tomatoes and a drizzle of oil.
- Slice the rested beef against the grain.
- Serve the roast beef with the agretti, rainbow chard, grilled onions, anchovy-tomato mayonnaise, and garlic bruschetta.
