In a 12″x8” baking dish or resealable food-storage plastic bag, combine all marinade ingredients. Blend well.
Add roast. Turn to coat.
Cover the dish or seal the bag. Refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight, turning once or twice.
Grill:
Heat grill. Remove roast from marinade. Reserve and refrigerate the remaining marinade.
Place roast on a gas grill over medium-low heat or on a charcoal grill 4–6 inches from medium coals; cover grill. Cook for 50–75 minutes or until it is of the desired doneness, turning once and basting with reserved marinade during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
Bake in oven:
Place in a shallow baking pan.
Bake at 325°F for 75–90 minutes, turning once and basting with reserved marinade during the last 15 minutes of baking.
Discard any remaining marinade.
Notes
If cooking on a grill without cover, a tent of foil can be used to cover the roast.
