Ingredients

  • 1 tri-tip roast (about 3-4 pounds)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, onion powder, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.
  3. Place the tri-tip roast in a large zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the roast, making sure it is evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for maximum flavor.
  4. Remove the tri-tip roast from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before grilling.
  5. Once the grill is preheated, place the tri-tip roast on the grill grates. Close the lid and cook for 6-8 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer if desired. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature, which should be around 130°F for medium-rare.
  6. Once cooked to your desired doneness, remove the tri-tip roast from the grill and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute and ensures a tender and juicy roast.
  7. Slice the tri-tip roast against the grain into thin slices. Serve immediately and enjoy!
