Oven Roasted Tri Tip Recipes

HOW TO COOK A TRI-TIP ROAST IN THE OVEN

Steps:

• Place the tri-tip roast into a closable plastic bag and set aside.
• Whisk the marinade ingredients together in a small dish and pour into the bag with the roast. Press the excess air out of the bag, zip it closed. Massage the meat well, turning within the bag to coat completely with the marinade. Place in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 425°F, set a wire rack over a baking sheet.
• Remove the marinating roast from the plastic bag, letting excess marinade drip off. Place the roast on the wire rack and insert an oven thermometer into the center of the meat. Grind black pepper over the top.
• Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and roast for 30 to 35 minutes or until desired doneness. For medium-rare 135°F, for medium 145°F. Remove from the oven, cover with aluminum foil and rest for 15 minutes.
• Transfer to a cutting board and slice across the grain in thin slices. Place on a platter and serve.

GRILLED OR OVEN-ROASTED SANTA MARIA TRI-TIP

Steps:

• Trim silver skin. The meat may have a thick layer of fat, some of which can be sliced off, but keep a good amount to help baste meat.
• Sprinkle meat with rub and massage lightly all over. Cover and refrigerate at least an hour or as long as overnight. Remove from refrigerator an hour before cooking.
• Prepare charcoal grill or heat a gas grill to high. Place roast on grill and sear one side well, 6 to 8 minutes, checking for flare-ups. Turn the roast and sear other side for about the same time. Then lower gas to medium-high or move the meat to a cooler part of the charcoal grill.
• Turn meat again and cook another 8 to 10 minutes. Flip and cook again. A 2-pound roast will require about 20 to 25 minutes total cooking time. The roast is ready when an instant-read thermometer reaches 130 degrees when inserted into the thickest part of the meat.
• Rest roast on a cutting board 10 to 20 minutes. Slice against the grain. The roast is shaped like a boomerang, so either cut it in half at the center of the angle, or slice against the grain on one side, turn the roast and slice against the grain on the other side.

OVEN ROASTED TRI-TIP ROAST RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Prepare the Santa Maria Rub and pat it into the meat on both sides, and let it it stand at room temperature for 2 hours if you are cooking it right away. If not, you may leave it in the fridge covered overnight. Just bring it to room temperature before cooking. Pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees. Place tri-tip in a roasting pan with a rack and place in hot oven, and roast to your preference. Check internal temperature after 20 minutes. It should be blood rare. That is too rare for us, so I roasted it for 30 minutes (140 degrees). Tent the meat loosely while you make the pan sauce. Place the pan you roasted the meat in over the burner, add the garlic, stir for 1 minute, add stock, wine, and any herbs. Bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Reduce the sauce slightly, then whisk in the mustard and taste it for salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the sliced meat and serve immediately. NOTE: This is a lean cut of meat which means that sometimes there are no pan drippings, so put a pat of butter in the pan, add the wine and the rest of the ingredients. It will still pick up the flavor. Allow the meat to stand for 15 minutes before carving. Carve by slicing the meat into thin slices across the grain. After roasting 30 minutes, mine was medium rare in the center when I carved it. Perfect when the pan sauce was poured over it. Serve immediately. Makes great sandwiches the next day.

OVEN ROASTED TRI TIP ROAST

Steps:

• Flavor Step: If you're using the garlic rub or a dry rub, combine all ingredients and generously season or rub the meat all over and let it stand at room temperature for up to 2 hours. Or cover the roast and leave it overnight in the refrigerator; let it sit at room temperature for 2 hours before cooking. If you're using a wet marinade, puncture the meat all over with a meat fork or skewer. Place it in a zip-lock bag or large bowl and pour the marinade over the meat. Marinate (cover if using a bowl), for up to 2 hours at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator. If the meat has been refrigerated, let it sit at room temperature for 2 hours before cooking. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Remove the meat from the marinade and pat it dry. Discard the marinade. Place the tri-tip, fat side up, on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Roast for 20 minutes, then begin checking the internal temperature: You should remove the roast at 115 degrees F to 120 degrees F for rare, 120 degrees F to 125 degrees F for medium-rare. Transfer the meat to a carving board or platter, cover loosely with foil, and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes before carving to allow the residual heat to complete the cooking and the juices to stabilize. Meanwhile, make the optional pan sauce: Pour off any fat from the roasting pan. Place the pan over a burner and add the stock, wine, and herbs. Bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Reduce the sauce almost to a syrup. Whisk in the mustard and taste for salt and pepper. Slice the meat into thin slices across the grain. If you made the sauce, pour it over the sliced meat, and serve.

TRI TIP ROAST

Steps:

• Rub roast all over with thyme, basil, marjoram, mustard, salt, and black pepper. Place meat in a sealable plastic bag, seal the bag, and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight. Pour red wine into bag with meat 4 hours before cooking.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Drizzle olive oil all over the bottom of a roasting pan.
• Place meat in the prepared roasting pan.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue roasting meat until hot and slightly pink in the center, 20 to 25 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before thinly slicing against the grain.

OVEN-ROASTED TRI-TIP WITH APRICOT AND PINEAPPLE SALSA

Steps:

• Combine seasoned salt, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper in a small bowl.
• Pat tri-tip dry with paper towels and place on a cutting board or plate. Rub 1/2 of the spice mixture on one side of the tri-tip, and rub the remaining mixture on the other side. Drizzle 1 teaspoon olive oil on one side of the tri-tip and use a pastry brush to lightly coat the surface. Flip the tri-tip and repeat with 1 teaspoon olive oil on the other side.
• Tightly wrap the seasoned tri-tip in plastic wrap, or use a zip-top bag, squeezing out as much air as possible before sealing. Place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours.
• Meanwhile, make the salsa by combining apricots, pineapple tidbits and juice, bell pepper, cilantro, jalapeno, lime juice, garlic, and salt in a non-reactive container. Seal and refrigerate at least 1 hour, or longer, if possible, since the apricots will soften over time.
• Allow tri-tip to come to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Heat remaining 4 teaspoons olive oil in an oven-proof, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Unwrap the tri-tip, and carefully place it in the hot oil. Brown each side, 3 to 4 minutes. Quickly blot any extra oil in the skillet with paper towels, held with tongs.
• Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake until tri-tip is firm but still pink, 15 to 20 minutes, or until desired doneness is achieved. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). A higher internal temperature is not recommended, as the meat will be tough.
• Remove from the oven and tent with foil, about 10 minutes. Slice into thin slices, about 1/4-inch thick, across the grain of the meat. Serve with the chilled salsa.
