Santa Maria Tri Tip
Report
Barbecue doesn't just belong to the South! This Grilled Santa Maria-Style Tri-Tip is a delicious taste of the Central California Coast where it is enjoyed with pinquito beans, salad, tomato salsa, and buttery garlic bread.

Ingredients
- 2-3 pounds tri-tip roast preferably with good marbling and some fat on one side
- 1 Tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 Tablespoon black pepper freshly ground
- 1 Tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Combine all of the rub ingredients in a small bowl, then rub over the meat and let it sit out for 1 hour, covered, so it isn't cold when it goes on the grill.
- Preheat the grill for both direct and indirect heat. Sear the tri-tip over direct heat (right over the flames) on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to indirect heat (between 250-300°F) and cover the grill, letting the tri-tip cook until it reaches 130°F on an instant read digital meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat for a medium-rare tri-tip. This should take roughly 20 to 30 minutes. Remember that the temperature will continue to rise about 5°F after taking it off the grill.
- Let the tri-tip rest for 10 minutes before slicing it in half to separate the two different grains, then slicing thin slices against the grain of each piece.
Notes
- If you are curious, a rare tri-tip would be 120°F, and medium would be 140°F, but I highly recommend taking the tri-tip off at 130°F.
