A beef roast is coated with a mixture of Dijon mustard, honey, curry powder and chives, grilled to perfection and served with curried-mustard cream.

Grilled Rump Roast with Curried Mustard

1 (3-pound) boneless beef round rump roast

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon curry powder

1 teaspoon snipped fresh chives

1/2 cup sour cream

Snipped fresh chives (optional)

1. Trim fat from meat.
2. Stir together mustard, honey, curry powder and 1 teaspoon chives. Measure about 1 tablespoon of the mustard mixture; brush over meat. Insert a meat thermometer into the center of the meat.
3. For sauce, in a small bowl combine the remaining mustard mixture and sour cream. Cover and refrigerate until serving time.
4. In a covered grill arrange medium coals around a drip pan. Test for medium-low heat above the pan. Place meat on grill rack over drip pan. Cover and grill to desired doneness. Allow 1 1/4 to 1 3/4 hours for medium rare (140°F / 60°C) or 1 3/4 to 2 1/4 hours for medium (155°F / 65°C).
5. Remove meat from grill and cover with foil. Let stand for 15 minutes before slicing. (The meat's temperature will rise 5°F during standing.)
6. Serve the meat with sauce and, if desired, additional snipped chives.
