Ingredients
  

  • 1 2.5 lb tri tip
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • ½ tsp dried rosemary
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Combine all the spices and pat into the tri tip. Place tri tip in a zip lock bag and add 1 tbsp olive oil. Marinate meat for at least a few hours (preferably overnight).
  • Preheat a barbecue and sear meat on direct heat for about 8-10 minutes on each side and then on indirect heat for another 10-15 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 130-135 degrees. Let the tri tip rest for at least 15 minutes before cutting slices against the grain.

Notes

Leftovers are great for sandwiches!
