Tri-tip is a barbecue staple and fan favorite. With a simple rub, a quick sear on each side, and an indirect-heat finish, you can prepare this cut to juicy, medium-rare perfection.
Steps
- Preheat grill to 350°F.
- Oil and season both sides of the tri-tip with salt, pepper, and olive oil.
- Place meat at the center of the grill over direct heat.
- Cook for 5 minutes, then flip and repeat.
- Move to indirect heat and cook for 20-30 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 135°F.
- Remove, slice, and enjoy plain or drizzled with chimichurri sauce.
