The Best Tri Tip Steak Marinade Food

6 HOUR TRI-TIP MARINADE

Steps:

• To make the marinade, mix all of the ingredients except for the beef in a large mixing bowl. Place the trimmed tri-tips in a plastic container and pour the marinade over. Let stand in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours.
• Heat grill to medium temperature.
• Place tri-tips on grill at a 45-degree angle to establish grill marks and cook about 35 minutes, or until cooked to desired doneness. Remove the tri-tips from the grill and let rest about 2 to 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with your favorite side dishes.

THE BEST BEEF TRI-TIP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).
• Mix salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, dried rosemary, and fresh rosemary together in a small bowl.
• Place tri-tip in a baking pan. Season generously with the spice rub until both sides are completely covered.
• Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium-rare, or until desired doneness, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Flip meat over halfway.
• Cover pan with aluminum foil and let meat rest for 20 minutes. Remove tri-tip to a cutting board and cut into 2 pieces along where the grain changes direction. Slice meat across the grain and transfer to serving plates.
• Mix beef broth in with the pan drippings and drizzle over the slices.

MARINATED TRI-TIP IN RED WINE AND HERBS

Steps:

• For the marinade: Place the steak in a 2-gallon resealable plastic bag and place the bag in a large bowl. Add the shallots, oil, honey, mustard, cilantro, parsley, thyme, garlic, oregano, wine, 1 tablespoon kosher salt and 2 teaspoons black pepper to the bag. Cut the oranges in half, squeeze the juice into the marinade and then add the halves as well. Seal the bag, squeezing out any excess air, then massage the marinade into the steak, making sure all the ingredients are evenly incorporated. Marinate the steak in the refrigerator for 2 1/2 hours.
• Preheat a grill for cooking over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade, making sure to pull off any marinade ingredients like herbs or shallots that stick to the steak (reserve the marinade). Generously sprinkle the steak all over with salt and pepper. Grill until dark grill marks form, 3 to 4 minutes per side; then turn the heat down, cover the grill and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the steak registers 130 degrees F for medium-rare, another 25 to 30 minutes. Remove the steak from the grill and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the marinade in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until thickened and reduced down to 1 1/2 cups, approximately 25 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain the sauce through a fine-mesh strainer.
• To serve: Rub a cutting board with olive oil and garlic, then sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Put the steak on top and slice it against the grain. Garnish with cilantro and parsley leaves, and serve with the red wine herb sauce.

TRI-TIP MARINADE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except tri-tip in a zip-lock bag.
• Add tri-tip and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours.
• We grill ours slowly over coals is best, but gas is fine. We will be smoking it this summer too.
