Barbecue Sauce

• 1 cup tomato ketchup
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup water
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon sambal oelek
• 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
• pinch hot smoked paprika

In a small saucepan mix all the ingredients together and simmer on low heat for 10 minutes. Set aside. Your sauce will keep for up to a week in the fridge.

Yields about 2 cups.

Beef Roast with Thyme and Paprika Rub

• 1.5 kg – 2kg beef roast
• 8 slices bacon
• 1 tablespoon paprika
• 3 sprigs of thyme, leaves only
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon dijon mustard

Preheat oven to 450°F.
Mix together the paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper.

Put the roast in a pan and lay the bacon slices on top so they cover the roast and add a small glass of water in the pan. Brush the mustard on top of the bacon and then sprinkle on that the paprika/thym/salt/pepper. Rub the spices into the bacon gently with your hands.

Cook in the oven for 15 minutes then bring down the heat to 350°F cook until the center of the roast reaches 125°F (~52°C). For my 1.5 kg roast it took 25 minutes at 350°F.

Remove from the oven and let rest at least 15 minutes before cutting it.
Set the bacon aside.

Putting it all together

Take two slices of bread and butter them.
Thinly slice some of the roast beef.
Heat up a pan on medium heat.
Add one or two slices of bacon from the roast to the pan and one slice of bread.
Put the beef and a couple spoonfuls of barbecue sauce on the toasting bread.
Once the bacon is crispy, put it on top, add your favorite cheese, and top with the other slice of bread.
Flip the sandwich over and let is crisp up on that side for about 3-4 minutes.
