Axis Roasts - Anyone tried to reverse sear?

[slayr]

Have several axis roasts and instead of following typical roast protocol was wondering if anyone had ever reverse seared one? Typically I smoke at 170ish until internal temp of 100, then sear until internal temp reached 125-126. Thoughts?

I’ve done it with Axis backstrap. I don’t have a smoker. So I did low and slow in the oven @200F until internal temp was ~105/110. I pulled it out of the oven, covered it in foil and let it rest in one of those small soft sided coolers while I heat up a cast iron. Finished it with a reverse sear for ~30-45 seconds per side. You may have to adjust your temperatures to suit.

That looks delicious and reverse sear is the only way I do my backstrap these days. Was just wondering with the roasts being a bit thicker if I’d be running into issues on the reverse sear end of things.

I’ve done reverse sear roast with WT hams. Turned out great.

Yes, we do it all the time with oryx roast. Think reverse seared prime rib, same method. Works on their steaks too as long as they’re thick cut like jhubbz below...
