The Best 4 Ingredient Tri Tip Marinade For Grilling
By Heather
The key to flavorful grilled meat is in the marinade! This tri tip marinade flavors roasts and steak in the best way and is made with 4 simple ingredients! You’ll love the savory, sweet, and umami flavors that you’ll get with this marinade mix.
In a small bowl combine the coconut aminos, sesame oil, and minced garlic. In a large dish add the roast and season both sides with sea salt. Pour the marinade over it, flip it a few times to fully coat it, then cover it with plastic wrap and marinade it in the fridge for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 days (the longer the better!). You can also use a ziplock bag instead of a dish for this step.
After at least 1 hour of marinating, or up to 4 days for extra flavor, remove your beef from the fridge and place it at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before cooking to take the chill off of it.
You can cook your tri-tip in many different ways! If you have a Traeger, follow my Traeger tri tip recipe that uses this marinade. You can also cook it on a gas grill or electric grill until the internal temperature of the roast or steaks is at 140 degrees F for medium when inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the meat.
When it is done, place the beef on a cutting board and let it rest for 5-10 minutes covered in aluminum foil. This is the best way to end up with a juicy roast!
