Stages of cooking
-
Using a sharp knife, cut small slits in the top of the roast; insert garlic slices into the slits. Dotdash Meredith Food Studios
-
Mix salt, pepper, and garlic salt together in a small bowl; rub all over the tri-tip and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 1 day. Remove tri-tip from the refrigerator about 20 minutes before grilling. Dotdash Meredith Food Studios
-
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
-
Place the meat directly above the flame to sear the meat and lock in the juices, about 5 to 10 minutes per side. Dotdash Meredith Food Studios
-
Turn the grill down to medium heat and continue to cook, turning occasionally, for another 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) for medium-rare. Let stand, covered loosely with aluminum foil, for 5 minutes before slicing.
