Step 1

The Tri tip has quite a bit of fat on one side, the bottom side, I leave it on. For this Two Ingredient Grilled Tri tip roast, I add generous amount of Montreal seasoning (this spice blend is found everywhere, it’s made my McCormick) on both sides. If for some reason you can’t find this seasoning blend, use coarse ground salt and pepper, granulated garlic and onion and a good pinch of crushed red pepper. NOTE: If you are using salt, pepper, onion and garlic. Add the salt, pepper and spices as you normally would. With that said, the quantities are approximate.

Step 2

I then place it in a casserole dish and add one light beer to the roast. Any light beer will do. If you have gluten sensitivity, use gluten free beer like Omission. (it’s what I used this time) Wrap with clear plastic wrap tightly and place in the fridge.

Step 3

Typically I allow this marinade about 6 hours or so and I flip it at the 3 hour mark so it marinades on the other side.

Step 4

I take it out about 30 to 60 minutes before I grill it, and discard the marinade. Once the marinade is discarded I season again on both sides.

Step 5

Preheat the grill to medium high. Once the grill is ready, please the tri tip fat side up. You want to sear the meat for 10 minutes. Flip to fat side down, keep an eye for flares. There is a lot of fat and you don’t want a fire. After about 5 minutes, flip back (fat side up). Turn grill onto medium low. Check it after 10 minutes, check the temperature, you can do a quick flip (keep and eye on the fat side) and then back to fat side up, about 8 minutes.

Step 6

For doneness, for rare, thermometer should read 125°, medium rare 135°, medium 145°, medium well 150°, and well 150°. Something to note, the roast will keep cooking, so I suggest removing it sooner than later. Example, if you desire medium rare, remove at rare temp, cover loosely with foil and let sit about 10 minutes. It will be perfect upon serving.

Step 7

Once you are ready to serve, slice against the grain.

Step 8

It should slice up beautifully at this point and be super tender. Add your favorite sauce and enjoy!
