Tri-Tip and Marinade
Method
Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, combine olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Marinate the Tri-Tip
Rub the marinade all over the tri-tip and let it marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator, or overnight for best results.
Prepare the Chimichurri
In a separate bowl, combine chopped parsley, cilantro, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and let it sit for at least 30 minutes to develop flavors.
Rest and Serve
Remove the tri-tip from the smoker and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Serve with the chimichurri sauce on the side.
