TriTip Recipe from Episode 207
​
Dry Rub
​
1 Tri Tip 3- 7 lbs
1/3 c coarse sea salt
1/2 c dark brown sugar
4 T freeze dried coffee
1 T garlic powder
1 T paprika
1/2 T ground cumin
1/2 T mustard seeds (yellow or brown)
1/2 T black pepper
​
Instructions:
​
Mix all the ingredients except the meat. Rub the dry rub over the entire tritip and refrigerate for at 3 hours, or preferably over night.
​
Preheat a grill to 300 degrees.
​
Wrap the tritip in aluminum foil. Two layers is a good call.
​
Grill the tritip for 3 to 7 hours, depending on weight. When the meat is very tender and easily comes with just a fork, remove from grill.
​
Heat the grill to 450 or preheat an oven to 450 degrees. Place the tritip in an ovenproof pan and roast for 20 minutes to give it a good char on the exterior.
