Tri Tip Roast (4 – 2.5lb Roasts)

• Tri-tip is a relatively lean, triangular-shaped cut from the bottom of the sirloin primal. It is the foundation for Santa Maria-style barbecue. The tri-tip has a distinct grain and is thick in size. It is best prepared at a lower temperature to cook properly.
• The tri-tip is a versatile cut and can be smoked, grilled, or roasted in the oven.
• Naturally lean with an undeniably robust flavor, this is a versatile, world-class roast that you’ll surely enjoy.
• It’s often sliced for sandwiches and is an excellent choice for fajitas, as well as served in traditional roast fashion.

In an oven, set the temperature to 350°F. Sear seasoned tri-tip in a large skillet, turning to get a brown crust on the entire roast. Place in the oven and roast for about 30 to 40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F. Remove and let rest for 10 minutes.

Slicing a tri-tip requires attention. The grain changes direction, so adjust the angle to ensure the entire tri-tip is sliced against the grain. Cutting the tri-tip in half can make this easier.
