How to Cook Tri Tip
Cooking tri tip can be a rewarding experience, resulting in a flavorful and tender cut of beef. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you prepare this delicious dish.
Ingredients
- 1 tri tip roast (about 2-3 pounds)
- Salt and pepper
- Your favorite marinade or rub (optional)
Preparation
- Marinate or Season: Begin by seasoning your tri tip with salt and pepper or marinating it for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
- Preheat the Grill or Oven: If grilling, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. For roasting, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Cooking: For grilling, place the tri tip on the grill and cook for about 30-40 minutes, turning occasionally, until it reaches an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare. If roasting, place the tri tip in a roasting pan and cook for about 25-30 minutes per pound.
Resting and Slicing
Once cooked, remove the tri tip from the heat and let it rest for at least 10-15 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute. Slice against the grain for maximum tenderness.
Serving Suggestions
Serve your tri tip with sides like roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
