Ingredients
- Whole tri-tip roast: I used a roast that was about 2 1/2 pounds. If you choose to use one larger, you may need to increase your cooking time.
- Lemon juice
- Olive oil: Avocado oil or even canola oil will also work.
- Brown sugar: I used dark but light will also work.
- Sauces: soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce
- Herbs and spices: finely minced garlic. chili powder, kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Keep in mind that the fresh minced garlic is preferable for flavor over the garlic powder or garlic salt as it’s a bit more potent in the marinade.
- Veggies: sliced red pepper, sliced green pepper, sliced yellow pepper, sliced onion and sliced jalapeno
- Step 1: In a small bowl, add lemon juice, olive oil, brown sugar, soy sauce, salt, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, garlic, and chili powder. Whisk together.
- Step 2: Transfer the marinade to a ziptop resealable bag and add tri-tip. Seal the bag, remove excess air and place in the fridge to marinate for 6- 8 hours, or overnight for even more flavor.
