Here is a recipe and how to grill a tri-tip.

EditTips

  • An alternative way to avoid use of butter altogether is by just covering the steak in crushed garlic and good, fresh, black pepper.
  • Try adding different spice combinations to the vegetables to give it a special something.
  • Don't use a temperature gauge and poke a hole in the meat. This will allow the flavorful juices to seep out onto the flames and could burn the steaks in a short period of time.
  • Leftover tri-tip slices are great for sandwiches.
  • Don't forget to season it with salt and black ground pepper before cooking.

EditWarnings

  • Grilling should always be done outside. You may consider turning off the smoke detector.
  • Keep a close watch on the grill.
  • Keep young children and pets away from fire, to prevent accidents. If you are a kid, you might want to make this with your mother/father/big brother/sister.
  • Always be extra careful when cooking on an open flame. Flare-ups may occur when the steak is turned over. Be careful of burning ash.
  • Wear oven mitts when handling something very hot!
  • Be careful while flipping the steaks!
  • Be cautious when handling.

EditThings You'll Need

  • Tongs or large fork for moving the tri tip
  • Grill
  • Charcoal or gas
  • Charcoal igniter (if the grill is charcoal)
  • A pan, bowl, or Ziploc-style bag large enough for the marinade and steak.
  • Knife
  • Spatula
  • Clean plate for the cooked meat
  • Matches
  • Spray bottle with water (For flare ups)
