Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 5 cloves garlic (peeled and smashed)
  • 1 tablespoon peeled and chopped fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 pounds tri-tip steaks

Instruction

  • In a large glass bowl or container, whisk together brown sugar, molasses, soy sauce, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, chili powder and freshly ground black pepper until the sugar is dissolved.
  • Place tri-tip steaks in the marinade and turn until completely coated. Let marinate for about 1 hour, covered, turning the steak occasionally.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat and brush with canola oil.
  • Place the steaks on the grill (do not discard the marinade) and cook until desired degree of doneness is reached, about 5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the steaks. Remove steak from the grill and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.
  • Transfer the marinade and any juices collected from the cooked steaks to a small saucepan. Bring to a low boil and let cook for about 10 minutes. Serve with the steak.
