THE BEST BEEF TRI-TIP



The Best Beef Tri-Tip image

I received a food wish for roast beef recently, which can be done with many different cuts. I ended up deciding on beef tri-tip, since it's affordable, flavorful, great for parties, and, using this low-temp roasting technique, nearly fool-proof. No marinating, no searing, no nothing; just rub on some salt and spices and pop it into the oven until it reaches the doneness you want. Plate it up with a Romano bean salad or enjoy as a roast beef sandwich!

2 tablespoons kosher salt

¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 (2 1/2 pound) beef tri-tip roast
½ cup beef broth

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups whole-milk yogurt
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon roughly chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon roughly chopped fresh mint
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound beef tenderloin, tri-tip or sirloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup roughly chopped jarred Calabrian chiles (with seeds)
3 tablespoons roughly chopped canned artichoke hearts
2 tablespoons pitted chopped kalamata olives
2 tablespoons crumbled feta
2 tablespoons roughly chopped bottled roasted red pepper
2 tablespoons roughly chopped parsley, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Soak three 8-inch wooden skewers in water for at least 20 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt, lemon juice, dill, mint and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and mix thoroughly. Reserve 1/4 cup of this mixture for plating. Add the beef to the remaining mixture, toss to coat and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  • Preheat a grill pan or large heavy skillet over high heat for 3 minutes or until smoking. Thread the beef equally on the skewers and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour the vegetable oil into the pan or skillet and cook the skewers on all four sides until very dark grill marks appear, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Remove the skewers from the pan and set aside to rest for 3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make a tapenade by combining the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, Calabrian chiles, artichoke hearts, olives, feta, roasted red pepper and parsley in a small bowl.
  • To serve, place the reserved yogurt mixture evenly in the middle of 2 serving plates. Top with the beef and tapenade and sprinkle with additional parsley. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cut beef tri-tip steak or cut it against the grain into 1-inch thick strips.
  • Use a food processor or blender to make the harissa and yogurt marinade for faster preparation.
  • If you don't have wooden skewers, soak metal skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning.
  • Marinate the beef tri-tip skewers for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, for maximum flavor.
  • To prevent the skewers from sticking to the grill, lightly oil the grates before cooking.
  • Cook the skewers over medium heat, turning frequently, until the beef is cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Serve the beef tri-tip skewers hot with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, rice, or salad.

Conclusion:

Beef tri-tip skewers marinated in harissa and yogurt are a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. The harissa and yogurt marinade tenderizes the beef and imparts a slightly spicy and tangy flavor. The skewers are easy to make and can be cooked on a grill or in the oven.
