Grilled Tri Tip With Spice Rub Recipes

TRI-TIP RUB

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate.
• In a medium bowl, combine garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix together and coat both sides of tri tip.
• Sear both sides on hot grill then cook 20-25 minutes or until center is light pink. Slice at an angle.

SPICE RUBBED TRI-TIP

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium.
• Sprinkle each seasoning onto a cutting board. Take the tri-tips and roll them over the sprinkled seasonings, making sure to coat all sides evenly.
• Place the tri-tips on the grill at a 45 degree angle to establish grill marks and cook about 35 minutes, or until desired doneness. Remove the tri-tips from the grill and let the meat rest about 2 to 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with your favorite side dishes.

GRILLED TRI-TIP WITH OREGON HERB RUB

Steps:

• Mix together the salt, garlic salt, celery salt, black pepper, onion powder, paprika, dill, sage, and rosemary in a bowl. Store in an airtight container at room temperature until ready to use.
• Use a damp towel to lightly moisten the roast with water, then pat with the prepared rub. Refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours, up to overnight, for the flavors to fully come together.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate.
• Place the roast onto the preheated grill and quickly cook until brown on all sides to sear the meat, then remove. Reset the grill for medium-low indirect heat (if using charcoal, move coals to the outside edges of the grill pit).
• Return the roast to the grill, and cook, turning occasionally, until the desired degree of doneness has been reached, about 1 1/2 hours for medium-well. Remove from the grill and cover with aluminum foil. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before carving across the grain in thin slices to serve.

GRILLED TRI-TIP WITH SPICE RUB

Steps:

• Trim the large chunks of fat (or have your butcher do this) from the tri-tip, and cut the thin silvery skin off if you can. Rub the salt all over the tri-tip.
• Combine the remaining seasonings (except the olive oil) in a small bowl and rub into the tri-tip. (*It will seem like a lot, but that's a good thing!).
• Pour 1/4 cup of olive oil in a large resealable plastic bag. Place the spice rubbed tri-tip in the bag with the olive oil and rub it in to coat completely. Squeeze out as much air as possible and seal. Place in the refrigerator for 5-6 hours, or up to 24 hours.
• When ready to grill, preheat an outdoor gas grill to 350-400 degrees F. Remove the tri tip from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature while the grill is heating.
• Place the tri-tip directly over the flames on the hot grill. Close the lid and watch for flare-ups.
• Cook approximately 8-10 minutes per side for medium rare. It can take up to 20-25 minutes to cook a 2 pound tri-tip, so check the temperature (120 degrees for rare, 130 for medium rare and 140 for medium), or in a pinch use the flesh test (see notes).
• Place the cooked roast on a cutting board to rest, covered loosely with foil for about 10 minutes.
• Uncover and cut in half, where the grain changes direction, then cut each piece against the grain into 1/2 inch slices.
• Serve immediately.
