Beef Tri-Tip, Raw

Beef Tri-Tip, Raw

EverydayRaw

Beef tri-tip is a triangular cut from the bottom sirloin subprimal, prized for its balance of lean muscle and moderate marbling. This versatile cut features a robust beef flavor and tender texture when sliced against the grain, making it a centerpiece of West Coast barbecue traditions like Santa Maria-style grilling. While relatively lean compared to premium steaks, it provides substantial protein with 5-10 grams of fat per 3-ounce serving depending on trimming.
