Tri Tip with Chimichurri Sauce

Cultural Context

Originating from the Central Coast of California, tri tip is a beloved cut of beef known for its rich flavor and tenderness. Traditionally served at barbecues, it pairs beautifully with chimichurri, a vibrant sauce made from fresh herbs, garlic, and vinegar. Today, this dish is enjoyed across the U.S., often featured at summer cookouts and family gatherings.

1

Trim the fat off the beef tri tip, removing about an entire pound to achieve a leaner piece of meat.

2

Season both sides of the tri tip with kosher salt and black pepper.

3

Prepare a rub using three parts of a previous Texas style beef brisket rub combined with one part ground coffee grains, and shake it over the entire piece of meat.

4

Gently massage the rub into every nook and cranny of the tri tip.

5

Let the seasoned tri tip marinate for a while before grilling.

6

Preheat the grill and sear the tri tip over high heat for about 2 minutes on each side.

7

Remove the tri tip from the grill after searing.

8

Wrap the tri tip in tin foil and place it in a casserole dish.

9

Insert a meat thermometer into the tri tip and bake it in the oven at 225°F for about 1 hour, monitoring the temperature until it reaches 130°F for medium rare.

10

Let the tri tip rest for about 10 to 15 minutes before slicing into it.
