Grilled Mediterranean Beef Tri Tip Recipes

GRILLED TRI TIP

Steps:

• Preheat. Preheat grill to medium (350 degrees F) for two-zone grilling.
• Season. Season the tri tip on all sides with Beef Rub.
• Make the mopping liquid. Combine all ingredients for the mopping liquid in a small bowl and set aside.
• Grill. Place the seasoned tri tip roast directly on the grill grates over indirect heat. Close the lid and grill for 30-40 minutes, flipping every 6-7 minutes. Mop liberally with mopping liquid after each time you flip the roast. Continue to grill the tri tip until the internal temperature reads 125 degrees F (for medium rare).
• Sear. When the roast reaches an internal temperature of 120 degrees F, move it over to direct heat and grill for 2-3 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness (See notes below for each temperature).
• Rest, slice, and serve. Remove the tri tip from the grill. Rest the meat for 10 minutes then slice against the grain and serve.
