Prep Time: 15 Minutes
Cook Time: 25 Minutes
Ready In: 40 Minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients:
1 tri-tip roast (about 1 1/2 pounds)
kosher salt
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon salt-free seasoning pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 (26-ounce) jar traditional pasta sauce
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon dry mustard
2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon honey
Directions:
1. Preheat an outdoor grill to medium heat.
2. Rinse roast with cold water and pat completely dry with paper towels. For the dry rub, in a small bowl, combine ingredients for dry rub. Place tri-tip on plate or platter and season with kosher salt. Rub a generous amount of dry rub into both sides of meat. Let set for 10 to 15 minutes. Repeat rub 2 to 3 times until all seasoning is used.
3. While meat is resting between rubs, prepare BBQ sauce. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine pasta sauce, chili powder, dry mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and honey. Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Set aside about half the sauce for serving, use half as a mop while grilling.
4. Oil grill or spray with cooking spray. Grill meat about 20 minutes total for medium-rare, turning and mopping with BBQ sauce every 5 minutes. Transfer meat to a cutting board. Tent with foil; let stand 10 minutes. Cut diagonally across the grain. Serve with extra sauce.
5. If cooking on a grill pan, sear meat 5 minutes on both sides then finish in a preheated 400 degree F oven for 10 to 15 minutes.
