Ingredients

  • 3 lb Tri Tip roast
  • 1/4 c light olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp garlic paste

Instructions

  • Set up your grill or smoker to 225 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Rub your tri tip with olive oil, garlic paste and generously season on all sides with our Grillax Tri Tip Rub.
  • Set your Tri Tip on the indirect side of your grill, or middle rack if smoking, and grill until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees Fahrenheit. This could take 1-2 hours, depending on the size of your cut.
  • Allow the Tri Tip to rest for 10 minutes. Slice against the grain and serve with mashed potatoes and Brussels sprouts.

Notes

Tri Tip can reach an internal temperature of 140 degrees Fahrenheit in just 1.5 to 2 hours. (That’s a medium-well smoke)
