The tri tip steak is a lean cut of beef, but that doesn’t take away from its rich beef flavor and tenderness. A popular choice for those who want a leaner cut of beef, this steak is taken from the sirloin primal, which is home to many great cuts of meat.
Sometimes called the triangle steak or Santa Maria steak, our grass fed tri tip steak is a well-marbled, great little steak to serve as a main dish all on its own. It’s a perfect cut for grilling, but also is good pan-seared in a skillet. The result is a tender, flavorful cut of beef with a buttery taste.
How do you cook a tri tip steak:
This is an easy steak to cook in a skillet or on a grill. For both methods, marinate the steak for about 30 minutes in olive oil then cook over medium heat for 5 minutes on the fattier side, then 8 minutes on the lean side. It's important to not overcook a grilled tri tip steak otherwise it will become tough. We recommend taking the steak to more more than a medium level of doneness.
How to smoke tri tip steak:
This is a popular and easy steak to smoke. To smoke a tip steak preheat smoker to 290 degrees using a flavorful wood. Smoke for 60-90 minutes or until the steak reaches an internal temperature of 135 degrees. Let rest for 10 minutes and enjoy!
