- 1 tsp fine ground white penja pepper
- 75 ml Extra Virgin Olive oil
Instructions

- Create a herb mixture for the crust by mixing the parmesan cheese, sage, thyme, lemon zest, breadcrumbs, fine salt, pepper and olive oil.
- Rub the mixture over the mustard until you have a sticky crust.
- Fire up your Burnhard smoker with a pecan or hickory pellet mixture. Set it to smoke at a temperature of 160°C/320°F.°

- Your Trip tip roast is ready to be sliced.
