Ingredients
Scale
- 2.5 lb tri tip roast
- 1.5 tsp garlic salt
- 1 tbsp Lawry's seasoning salt
- 1.5 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 tsp sugar
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp parsley (dried or fresh)
- 0.25 cup olive oil
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine all dry seasonings (garlic salt, Lawry's seasoning salt, kosher salt, black pepper, sugar, garlic powder, and parsley). Whisk until well mixed.
- Rub the spice mixture evenly over the tri tip roast and drizzle with olive oil; massage into the meat. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- For grilling: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Sear tri tip for 4-5 minutes on each side until a crust forms. Then reduce heat to medium and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes until it reaches an internal temperature of 135°F (medium-rare). Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- For oven-roasting: Preheat your oven to 425°F. Roast tri tip in a pan for about 25 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 135°F (medium-rare). Rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
