Serve them a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/types-of-steak-everyone-should-know\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/types-of-steak-everyone-should-know\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">type of steak<\/a> that they\u2019ve probably never heard of: tri-tip steak. This lean, tender steak is usually more affordable than other steaks, and it has a full-flavored characteristic that\u2019s missing from other cuts. It tastes great even if you don\u2019t use a fancy dry rub or marinade!<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s easy to learn how to cook beef tri-tip steak recipes, too, because the meat tastes best when cooked over high heat. That means it was basically made for the grill!<\/p>\n<h2>What is a tri-tip steak?<\/h2>\n<p>A tri-tip steak is a triangular cut from the bottom sirloin of a tri-tip roast. The boneless roast is usually cut into 1-inch-thick steaks, a perfect size for grilling or searing in a cast-iron pan. Tri-tip steak may also be called bottom sirloin steak or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/santa-maria-roast-beef\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/santa-maria-roast-beef\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">Santa Maria<\/a> steak because it was popularized in California.<\/p>\n<p>Like other sirloin cuts, tri-tip steak is lean, so you won\u2019t find the same fat cap that\u2019s on a ribeye or New York strip. The tri-tip is well-marbled, though, so it should have plenty of white flecks of intramuscular fat. Put it all together and the result is a steak with a rich, beef-forward flavor you won\u2019t find in other cuts.<\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients for Tri-Tip Steak<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Olive oil:<\/strong> A little extra fat from a good-quality olive oil creates flavor, helps the meat brown and prevents sticking during cooking.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Worcestershire and soy sauce:<\/strong> These two ingredients pack an umami-rich punch, deepening the marinade&#8217;s flavor with an intense meatiness.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Balsamic vinegar:<\/strong> An acid is absolutely necessary in any marinade. Acids tenderize meat by breaking down the strong, fibrous tendons. Plus, a bit of acidity balances the salty, fatty and sweet components in the marinade.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Honey:<\/strong> A sweet ingredient like honey helps the steak caramelize, creating irresistible crispy bits around the edges. Hot honey can be used instead to add a tiny kick of heat.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tri-tip roast:<\/strong> If you can\u2019t find tri-tip steak at the grocery store, use the opportunity to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/butcher-counter-tips\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/butcher-counter-tips\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">visit your local butcher<\/a>. They can usually special-order cuts like tri-tip upon request.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Seasonings:<\/strong> A small touch of garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper powers up the flavor in this recipe for tri-tip steak even further without being overkill.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Marinate the steak<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2078941 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Tri-Tip-Steak-FT24_277370_JR_1030_1.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Raw beef marinating in brown sauce in a white dish, with tongs resting on top\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Josh Rink for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons olive oil with the soy sauce, Worcestershire, balsamic vinegar and honey.

Let the steak cook for a few minutes, then flip it and cook it for a few additional minutes.<\/p>\n<h2>Tri-Tip Steak Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2078947\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Tri-Tip-Steak-FT24_277370_JR_1030_7.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Tri Tip Steak Ft24 277370 Jr 1030 7\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Josh Rink for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How should I grill tri-tip steak?<\/h3>\n<p>The grill\u2019s high heat is ideal for cooking beef tri-tip steak recipes. Tri-tip doesn\u2019t have as much fat as other beef steaks, so there\u2019s nothing to render out with low cooking temperatures. The grill flash-cooks the meat, creating a nice sear on the outside while preserving the juices inside.<\/p>\n<p>Start by preheating the grill to high heat. A charcoal grill will impart the most flavor into the meat, but a gas grill works just fine. Add the steaks and cook them for six to seven minutes. Flip the steaks and cook for another five to six minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 135\u00b0. If your steaks are thinner than 1 inch, reduce the cooking time by a few minutes.<\/p>\n<h3>How should I broil tri-tip steak?<\/h3>\n<p>If you don\u2019t have a grill or the weather isn\u2019t cooperating, you can cook recipes for tri-tip steak inside under the broiler. The broiler works the same way as the grill except the heat comes from above.<\/p>\n<p>Preheat the broiler using the high setting on your oven. Position an oven rack 3 to 4 inches below the heat. Place the steak on a broiler pan and slide it onto the oven rack. Cook for four to five minutes per side, reducing the cooking time if your steaks are thinner than 1 inch.<\/p>\n<h3>What temperature should tri-tip be cooked to?<\/h3>\n<p>Tri-tip steak is well-marbled, but it\u2019s leaner than most steaks so we suggest cooking it to medium-rare (135\u00b0) and letting it rest for five minutes before slicing. If you like your steak more well done, you can take it as far as medium (145\u00b0), but cooking it further can cause it to become dry and tough.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you keep tri-tip from drying out?<\/h3>\n<p>To ensure your tri-tip steak recipe turns out juicy and delicious, be sure to cook it over very high heat, but be careful to prevent the meat from overcooking. It\u2019s really best to probe it with an instant-read meat thermometer and pull it from the grill when it reaches 135\u00b0. If you want to cook your tri-tip steak further, marinating it first is important. The marinade will infuse the meat with extra flavor, building in a little overcooking protection.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, do not skip the resting step\u2014that\u2019s one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/10-mistakes-almost-everyone-makes-when-cooking-steak\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/10-mistakes-almost-everyone-makes-when-cooking-steak\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">steak mistakes<\/a> most people make that turns a perfect steak into a dry one! Let your steak rest for five to ten minutes before slicing it to allow the juices a chance to redistribute within the meat. Slicing too early will make all those juices leak out.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you tenderize tri-tip?<\/h3>\n<p>Tri-tip doesn\u2019t need to be tenderized because it\u2019s already a naturally tender cut. If you want to enhance its flavor, follow our recipe and marinate it for two to three hours before cooking it. Adding acidic ingredients like lemon juice or vinegar to the marinade will help break down the muscle fibers, making the steak more tender.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of trying to tenderize tri-tip, the best way to ensure your steak tastes tender is to slice it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-cut-steak-the-right-way\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-cut-steak-the-right-way\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">against the grain<\/a> before serving. Slicing meat against the grain shortens the muscle fibers, making each bite easier to chew.<\/p>\n<h3>How should you serve tri-tip steak?<\/h3>\n<p>Tri-tip steak takes on seasonings, rubs and marinades exceptionally well, so you have your choice when serving it. The meat tastes incredible when seasoned simply with salt and pepper and served with your favorite <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/steak-sides\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/steak-sides\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">steak side dishes<\/a>. You can also fancy it up by using Southwest spices, slicing the cooked steak into long strips, and serving it on a bed of lettuce with corn, tomatoes and avocado for a filling salad. You can\u2019t go wrong marinating it in beer and lime juice, either, then using the medium-rare steak to make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/grilled-onion-skirt-steak-tacos\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/grilled-onion-skirt-steak-tacos\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">grilled onion and steak tacos<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>One of our favorite ways to enjoy a recipe for tri-tip steak is to turn it into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/triple-pepper-steak-sandwiches\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/triple-pepper-steak-sandwiches\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">sandwiches<\/a>.
