Preparation recommendation Tri Tip

Preparation

Suitable preparation methods:

Grill plate, plancha or pan

Properties:

The Tri Tip is extremely aromatic, has a fine marbling and offers a tender, juicy bite. It is characterized by its intense flavour and slightly fibrous texture, which makes it a popular cut for barbecue lovers.

Defrost correctly:

Quick: Fill a large pot with cold water and place the meat in it for about an hour.

Slow: Place in the fridge 1 day before cooking.

Preparation:

Remove the Tri Tip from the fridge or water bath, unwrap and pat dry with a paper towel.
We recommend seasoning the meat with salt only. To do this, salt the Tri Tip well on all sides and allow the salt to "soak in". Allow 30 to 120 minutes for this process. During this time, place the meat unpacked in the fridge. Room temperature is not necessary before grilling!


Set the grill plate, plancha or pan to approx. 75% of the maximum temperature and allow to preheat well. Apply a teaspoon of frying oil or clarified butter to the frying surface or directly to the meat. Place the Tri Tip directly from the fridge onto the preheated surface and press gently onto the frying surface with a turner. After approx. 90 seconds, turn the meat onto another side and apply gentle pressure there too. The Tri Tip has more than two sides! Please repeat this process with all cut sides until they are dark brown.


Immediately afterwards, cook the Tri Tip at 120 degrees indirect heat in the grill or oven until the desired core temperature is reached.


Serve immediately afterwards, cut diagonally against the grain and enjoy hot. We recommend a core temperature of 54 degrees Celsius for this piece.


We wish you bon appétit!
