• Drag out your mortar, spice mill, or sledge hammer, and crush the peppercorns along with the other 3 cloves of garlic, the salt, and the herbs and mix them into a paste (add a touch of oil if desired).

• Watch it closely now, and when it gets to 135F you can take it out and have a nice med-rare roast (for med, go till 150, and for well-done, go to 160).
