Tri-Tip Roast ($13.99/lb.)

Tri-Tip Roast 1 roast per package Avg. 2.5 lbs. each Description Until the 1950’s tri-tip was cut into steaks and used for ground beef. Then in Santa Maria, CA., it became a local specialty. This relatively inexpensive cut from the bottom sirloin, is low in fat and extremely flavorful. Cooking Tips Whether you’re grilling, smoking or roasting the tri-tip in the oven, this is a very flavorful cut of meat, and makes a great sandwich. Season the tri-tip with salt and pepper or your favorite spice rub, and refrigerate over night. If you’re using a gas grill, heat to medium high. If you’re using a charcoal grill, light coals and wait till they become ash covered. Then grill the tri-tip uncovered turning several times for 20-30 minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees. Let rest on a platter lightly covered with aluminum for 20 minutes. Slice as thinly as possible, against the grain.
