Smoked Tri Tip Sammy Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Tri-tip

   Season the tri-tip roast with salt and black pepper. Smoke the tri-tip on a grill or smoker at 225°F (107°C) until it reaches an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare, about 2-3 hours. Remove and let rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.

2. 2

   Caramelize the Onion

   While the tri-tip is smoking, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Slice the onion and add it to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is golden brown and caramelized, about 20-25 minutes.

3. 3

   Make the Aioli

   In a small bowl, mix together Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, and horseradish sauce until well combined.

4. 4

   Assemble the Sandwich

   Slice the ciabatta buns in half. Spread the mustard horseradish aioli on both sides of the buns. Layer with slices of smoked tri-tip, caramelized onions, smoked Gouda cheese, and fresh arugula. Top with the other half of the bun.

5. 5

   Serve

   Serve immediately, enjoying the smoky flavors and the delicious combination of ingredients.
