Ingredients

  • 2-3 pounds beef tri-tip

Rub Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 1 tbsp pepper
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Combine all of the rub ingredients and mix well.

  2. Rub the combined rub ingredients generously onto all sides of the beef tri-tip.

  3. Place into a large bag or into a large bowl and cover.

  4. Refrigerate to marinate for at least four hours. Over night is even better.

  5. Heat the grill to 500 degrees.

  6. Once the grill is hot, place meat onto the grill and sear all sides.

  7. Lower the heat to 300 degrees and roast for 45 minutes. Turning a couple times-not to many times or the meat will dry out.

  8. Remove from grill and let rest for 10-15 minutes. The middle should still be have some pink.

  9. Some of us like a lot of pink and some like less. Cook to your liking.
