BBQ Tri Tip

Step 1

Preheat grill to medium (350° Fahrenheit) for two-zone grilling.

Step 2

Combine ingredients for the rub in a small bowl.

Step 3

Combine ingredients for mopping liquid in a small bowl and set aside.

Step 4

Season tri tip on all sides with rub and place on the indirect heat on your grill.

Step 5

Grill the tri tip on indirect heat, 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 120° Fahrenheit (for medium rare).

Step 6

When the roast reaches an internal temperature of 120° Fahrenheit, move it over to direct heat and grill for 2-3 minutes per side or until internal temperature reaches your desired doneness (Pull your tri tip at 125° F for rare, 135° F for medium rare, 145° F for medium, 155° F for medium well, or 160° F for well done).

Step 7

Let the roast rest for 10-15 minutes. Slice against the grain and serve.
