Tri Tip Fat Sandwich Recipes

TRI TIP SANDWICH

Steps:

• Place the mayonnaise in a small mixing bowl.
• Chop the chipotle peppers and garlic together until they are finely minced and add them to the mayonnaise.
• Stir in the vinegar, molasses, onion powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Set the aioli aside.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Add the onions and peppers and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown. Season with salt and pepper
• Assemble the sandwiches
• Toast the hoagie rolls under a broiler or lay them flat on a grill until lightly browned.
• Slice the tri-tip steak into thin slices. Cut across the grain to get tender slices of meat.
• Spread the chipotle aioli onto the toasted buns then pile the onion and pepper mixture on one side. Top the onions with two slices of cheese then a heap of sliced tri-tip.

TRI-TIP DIP

Steps:

• Combine the butter with the garlic and brush on the inside of the ciabatta rolls. Toast the rolls on a grill, or broil in the oven until crispy. Smear with Horseradish Mayonnaise.
• Dip the tri-tip slices into the hot Jus for 45 seconds to warm. Pile the meat onto the bottoms of the rolls and top with cheese if using. Close the sandwiches, slice in half and serve with extra Jus on the side for dipping.
• Combine the sour cream, horseradish, mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Saute the shallots and garlic in the butter and olive oil until lightly caramelized, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the flour and mix together to form a loose paste (roux). Deglaze with the brandy and whisk in the beef stock, demi-glace and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the aroma and flavor of the jus are rich and deep, 25 minutes. Strain the broth to remove the garlic and shallots, then return the liquid to the pot. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.

THE BEST BEEF TRI-TIP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).
• Mix salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, dried rosemary, and fresh rosemary together in a small bowl.
• Place tri-tip in a baking pan. Season generously with the spice rub until both sides are completely covered.
• Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium-rare, or until desired doneness, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Flip meat over halfway.
• Cover pan with aluminum foil and let meat rest for 20 minutes. Remove tri-tip to a cutting board and cut into 2 pieces along where the grain changes direction. Slice meat across the grain and transfer to serving plates.
• Mix beef broth in with the pan drippings and drizzle over the slices.

TRUCKER SPECIAL SANDWICH WITH ROASTED TRI-TIP

Steps:

• For the roasted tri-tip: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the tri-tip in a roasting pan and cover with the carrots, celery, onions, oregano and some garlic. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add 1/2 cup water to the pan and cover.
• Bake for 1 1/2 hours (reduce the time for rarer meat). Uncover and brown for about 30 minutes more. Let rest for about 15 minutes before slicing. (The stock may be saved for soups and brown gravies.)
• For the trucker special sandwich: Spread the butter on one side of each slice of bread. Place two bread slices, butter-side down, in a skillet over medium heat. Place one slice of cheese on each bread slice in the skillet. Place the meat on top of the cheese, and place the green chiles and bacon on top of the meat. Top with the other two slices of bread, butter-side up. Cook until golden brown on both sides. Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and cut in half.
