This is one of my favorite cuts of beef. Tri-tip is a small, boneless, triangular muscle cut from the bottom sirloin, usually weighing in at about 2.5 pounds. It's sold under two different names, although it's the same cut of beef: Tri-Tip Roast and Tri-Tip Steak. This cut of meat has a full beefy flavor, low fat content and is relatively inexpensive ($5.79 a pound at Costco). It's also ridiculously easy to prepare.
Ingredients
Tri-Tip Roast (about 2.5 lbs)

Oven Roasting Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees.
- Rub roast all over with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Place on baking sheet and place in oven for 35 minutes for medium rare.
- Remove roast from oven, tent with foil and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice across the grain (see above photo) and serve.
- Prepare coals. When coals are hot, spread them out on just one-half of the grill (so that you have both a direct and an indirect grilling surface).
- Rub roast all over with olive oil. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.
- Place roast on direct heat side (over the coals). Sear, with grill covered, for 5 minutes on each side.
- Move roast to indirect side. Cover grill and open vents. Let roast cook on indirect side for 15-20 minutes.
- Remove from grill, tent with foil and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice across the grain (see above photo) and serve.
