Tri-Tip Roast

Tri-Tip Roast

EverydayCooked

Tri-tip is a triangular cut of beef from the bottom sirloin, prized for its balance of lean texture and robust beef flavor. This versatile roast is traditionally grilled or oven-roasted to medium-rare, developing a caramelized crust while retaining moist tenderness due to its moderate marbling. Popularized in California's Santa Maria barbecue style, it provides a high-quality protein source rich in iron and zinc, with a smaller size that cooks faster than most beef roasts.
