Ranch Hands Grilled Tri Tip Food

GRILLED TRI-TIP STEAK

Steps:

• Marinate tri-tip for several hours in red wine, soy sauce, sugar, rosemary, and thyme, refrigerated.
• Heat a grill on high.
• Sear the outside of the meat with high heat with the fat side up. Then reduce heat to medium and slow roast for 20 minutes.
• Let the steak rest in a foil tent for about 10 minutes before cutting diagonally across the grain.

TRUCKER SPECIAL SANDWICH WITH ROASTED TRI-TIP

Steps:

• For the roasted tri-tip: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the tri-tip in a roasting pan and cover with the carrots, celery, onions, oregano and some garlic. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add 1/2 cup water to the pan and cover.
• Bake for 1 1/2 hours (reduce the time for rarer meat). Uncover and brown for about 30 minutes more. Let rest for about 15 minutes before slicing. (The stock may be saved for soups and brown gravies.)
• For the trucker special sandwich: Spread the butter on one side of each slice of bread. Place two bread slices, butter-side down, in a skillet over medium heat. Place one slice of cheese on each bread slice in the skillet. Place the meat on top of the cheese, and place the green chiles and bacon on top of the meat. Top with the other two slices of bread, butter-side up. Cook until golden brown on both sides. Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and cut in half.

CHIPOTLE TRI-TIP

Steps:

• Combine chiles, garlic, cilantro, olive oil, lime juice, and red wine in a large bowl. Mix well and divide among 3 large resealable bags. Add 1 steak to each bag and refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours.
• Heat grill to medium-high and grill steaks for about 10 to 15 minutes on each side, turning halfway through to achieve cross-hatch marks. Remove from grill, tent with foil, and let rest for 15 minutes. Carve into slices with a sharp knife and serve on baguettes with the Santa Fe Aioli.
• Combine all ingredients, except cilantro, in a food processor and pulse until aioli is thick and creamy. If you like cilantro, fold it in at the end.

TRI TIP

Steps:

• Remove fat from the trip tip. On the side that you have removed the fat sprinkle your favorite seasoning. Place in a sealable plastic bag and add Worcestershire sauce. Let it marinate overnight in the refrigerator. Remove tri tip from the marinade and grill over high heat until desired doneness.
