How To Cook Tri Tip On Grill
Olivia Luz

Tri tip is a lean cut of steak with a mild beef flavor and tapered shape.
5 10 minutes per side is normally what we use. This means lighting one side of the grill on high while leaving the other side unlit. Set the tri tip on the grill with the fat side down for 15 minutes. Grill the tri tip on each side to develop a dark brown crust about 5 minutes on the first side flip the steak and grill about 8 minutes on the second side.
Heat a gas grill to 500 degrees to get a good crusty sear on the meat. Once the grill is ready in high heat place the tri tip on direct flame. The meat will be almost black just like when you do a brisket. Brush off the grill if there are any leftover food particles on it.
Check for doneness with a meat thermometer. Turn the steak occasionally about every 20 minutes until it reaches 110 43 c in the center of the thickest part. This juicy certified angus beef cut is shaped like a tri. Preheat the grill to medium or medium low about 350 to 375 degrees f.
