Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 pounds Tri Tip Steak ((also called Tri Tip Roast))
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • ¾ cup ketchup
  • ½ cup cider vinegar
  • ¼ cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons Worcetershire sauce
  • 1 ½ tablespoons Yellow mustard
  • 2 teaspoon soy sauce
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • Tabasco sauce (to taste)

Instruction

  • Let the tri tip sit out at room temperature at least 20 minutes before grilling.
  • Mix rub ingredients together in a small bowl.
  • Use a pair of clean rubber or plastic gloves to rub the tri tip with olive oil, covering it completely. Then rub the spices evenly over the meat.
  • Grill over medium heat for 10 minutes on each side with direct heat. Continue to grill another 30 minutes with indirect heat. Use a meat thermometer to determine when the steak is cooked to your preference. For a medium cooked trip tip steak, the center temperature should reach 155 degrees.
  • When there is about 15 minutes left, baste the tri-tip with half of the homemade bbq sauce- recipe below.
  • Let the meat sit for at least 5 minutes after removing from the grill before cutting into it. Cut into thin slices and serve with the remaining bbq sauce for dipping.
