Tri-Tip

A favorite in the West for good reason, Tri-Tip is known for its rich beef flavor, tender texture, and versatility on the grill or in the smoker. Cut from the bottom sirloin, this triangular roast cooks beautifully over high heat and slices up tender and juicy when prepared right.

Whether you’re feeding the family on a weeknight or cooking for a backyard gathering, Tri-Tip delivers bold flavor and a satisfying bite every time.

Best Ways to Cook Tri-Tip

Tri-Tip is best cooked to medium-rare or medium for the most tender results. Season simply with salt, pepper, and garlic, then grill or smoke until the outside develops a flavorful crust while the inside stays juicy and tender.

After cooking, let the meat rest before slicing thin against the grain to maximize tenderness.
