• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic
• 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
• 1 cup beef broth
• Salt and pepper to taste salt and pepper
• 1 large onion

Method

1. 1

   Preheat your grill to medium heat (about 180°C/350°F).

2. 2

   Season the veal roast generously with salt and pepper.

3. 3

   In a large cast-iron skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the veal roast on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.

4. 4

   Remove the veal from the skillet and place it on the grill. Add the minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, and quartered onion around the roast.

5. 5

   Pour the beef broth into the skillet and bring it to a simmer. Use this to baste the veal roast every 30 minutes during cooking.

6. 6

   Cover the grill and cook the veal for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 70°C (160°F).

7. 7

   Once cooked, remove the veal from the grill and let it rest for 15 minutes before slicing.

8. 8

   Slice and serve with the grilled onions and a drizzle of the broth from the skillet.
