Instructions

Prepare the Marinade

In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, maple syrup, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, black pepper, and red chili.

Pro tip: Use a whisk to emulsify the marinade well.

Marinate the Tri-Tip

Place the tri-tip in a large zip-top bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag and massage the meat to coat it well.

Pro tip: Let it marinate for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.

Prepare the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Make sure to clean the grates well.

Pro tip: A clean grate prevents the meat from sticking.

Salt the Tri-Tip

Before cooking, remove the tri-tip from the marinade and season with salt on both sides.

Pro tip: Salt helps to form a nice crust during cooking.

Grill the Tri-Tip

Place the tri-tip on the grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes on each side, until medium doneness.

Pro tip: Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness (130°F for medium-rare).

Let it Rest

Remove the meat from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Pro tip: Resting allows the meat to relax and retain its juices.

Slice and Serve

Slice the tri-tip against the grain and serve with grilled vegetables and rice.

Pro tip: Slicing against the grain ensures tender pieces.
