Cooking Method: Marinating
Marinated Grilled Tri-Tip
Marinades have only three main components: acid, fat, and flavorings. Marinades add flavor tenderizes the meat by breaking down the outer layers of connective tissue. The fat or oil is to help retain moisture and creates a caramelized brown finish during cooking. Flavorings are what make your marinade go from so-so to spectacular, which can be fresh and dried herbs, spices, onion, garlic, and condiments and sauces like mustard, soy sauce, sugar, molasses, honey, and ginger. This Marinated Grilled Tri-Tip has all those components. You can use it on all types of beef - London Broil, flank steak, skirt steak, etc. I always marinate meat in a ziplock bag.
