4 pounds tri-tip roast
4 cloves garlic, peeled and very thinly sliced
1/3 cup salt
1/3 cup black pepper
1/3 cup garlic salt
Directions
1.Using a sharp knife, cut small slits into the top of the roast. Stuff the slits with slices of garlic.
2.Mix together salt, pepper, and garlic salt. Rub entire mixture all over the tri-tip. Refrigerate at least an hour and up to all day. Take the meat out of the refrigerator about 20 minutes before grilling.
3.Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat.
4.Place the meat directly above the flame for 5 to 10 minutes per side (depending on thickness) to sear the meat and lock in the juices.
5.Turn the grill down to medium heat and continue to cook for another 25 to 30 minutes, trying not to flip it too much. Check for doneness with a meat thermometer. Thermometer should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) for medium-rare. Let stand, covered loosely with aluminum foil, for 5 minutes before slicing.

How long do i cook a Tri-tip on a Charcoal grill?

We get excellent results with tri-tip on a charcoal grill using the indirect grilling method. Build a direct-medium fire (350°F to 375°F ) then separate the coals into two fires (or push to one side) and place a drip pan under the area where there are no coals.

Allow the tri-tip to stand at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before grilling. Then, sear the tri-tip directly over the coals for about 10 minutes, turning half way. Then move over the drip pan and allow to finish cooking over indirect heat. Depending on the thickness of the tri-tip this should take 10-15 additional minutes for medium rare at the thickest part of the tri-tip.

Allow to stand for 5-10 minutes before cutting into thin strips on the bias of the grain.

How long do you cook a 3 pound tri tip in oven?

Place the tri tip on a rack in a foil lined baking pan/dish (Such as a Corning Ware dish)

Season the roast with either a dry rub, or just some salt and pepper, as a tri tip is a very flavorful piece of meat to begin with.

Here's the "kitchen secret" so that you don't have to sear the roast before you roast it:

Preheat your oven to 450 F degrees. Put about 1 quart of water in the bottom of the baking dish. Place the seasoned roast on the rack in the oven and set a timer for 45 minutes. After 45 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350 F degrees. Roast about 1.5 hrs longer, more or less according to how you like your beef, rare, medium (that would be me) or well done.

BTW, you can do this with ANY type of roast, this is the method that I do my Prime Ribs during the Christmas season. Enjoy!!

BTW, here's a comprehensive GUIDE to roasting meats at what temps and for how long to roast:

How long should a tri tip marinate?

Never, ever soak beef in an acidic marinade for more than an hour or two. The vinegar is only for flavor, while the acid will destroy the texture of the meat by breaking up the cell walls - causing the meat to get dry and chalky with long soaking times in a strong acid. It's a common misperception that acids tenderize meat - but they don't. Meat can be tenderized mechanically or chemically with enzymes, not with acids.

This is easy to see for yourself. Take a small chunk of the meat and leave it soaking in pure vinegar for 48 hours in the fridge. Cook it to see what happens. It will be terrible. That is just accelerating the process to its most obvious conclusion. Every extra hour that you're soaking the meat in the acid you're just destroying the texture bit by bit, from the exterior to the interior.

I started grilling tri-tip and using acidic marinades for more than 30 years since enjoying the taste during a trip to Santa Maria California, where this technique was popularized. You can save a lot of time by perforating the tri-tip many times with a large-prong fork while soaking in the marinade, which will actually give you the full flavor of the marinade very quickly, in less than 10 minutes. The tri-tip (bottom sirloin) will easily withstand the perforating and it helps to tenderize it mechanically. Other steaks like tenderloin and filet mignon normally shouldn't be perforated or marinaded, since they are already the most tender cuts and the flavor of the marinade isn't often an improvement over a basic seasoning or rub.

How long to cook a 3 pound tri tip sirloin in a 425 degree oven?

Instead of weight think of thickness. A three pound tri tip is going to be about 3 inches thick. Here's what I'd do: Let it come to room temperature. Leave it on the counter for half an hour. If you are worried about germs rub the meat with salt, raw garlic and olive oil. Season the meat as you like (I like garlic powder, cumin, salt and pepper). Put the meat on a roasting tray, preferably on a rack. Put the meat in a preheated 400 degree oven. Roast for 30 minutes. Take it out and let it rest for 10 minutes in a warm but not hot place. Slice 1/2 " thick across the grain.

How long should I cook tri tip (in the oven) for medium-well?

Read carefully. Tri tip should be grilled but i have done it in the oven before and it was great.

1. Pre-heat oven to 425'--(you will turn it down when you put meat in.)
2. Use a rack or a roasting pan so that the meat is at least 3/4 to and inch off the bottom.
3. Place meat fat side up on pan. The fat drippings will drip down into the meat.
4. Turn oven down to 350' and put rack in oven. Check it at about 30 minutes later.
5. After the 30 minutes you want to flip it over.
----I usually let the meat get a nice brown crust on the top before flipping.
6. Once flipped, cook for about 10 to 15 minutes more.
7. Check temp and remove it then tent it (lightly cover i with tinfoil) and let stand for ten minutes.

This was for a 3 lbs tri-tip

How long can I marinate a tri-tip for?

So I'm thinking about doing a Beer marinade for tri-tip. Here's what I was thinking about adding to it so far.

Beer (A dark beer)
Lemon Juice
Fresh crushed garlic
Habanero
Olive oil
a little brown sugar
and either salt, or maybe soy sauce?

-- maybe a couple other things. The ingredients aren't set in stone yet... I just want to know how long I can marinate a tri-tip for. I was gonna go to the store tonight and marinate the beef overnight. I don't know if I should remove it from the marinade when I get up in the morning, or if it's safe to leave in until I get home from work tomorrow?
