What Makes This Video Special?
Heath is all about creating bold flavors without overcomplicating things, and this video showcases just that. With a focus on his Steak & Chop Seasoning, he transforms a gorgeous Certified Angus Beef Tri Tip into a flavor explosion. You’ll pick up some handy tricks while learning the secrets to perfecting that savory crust!
Step-By-Step Guide
Here’s a glimpse of what Heath covers:
- Setting Up Your Grill: Heath fires up a Weber 22″ Original Kettle Premium, firing up a chimney of Royal Oak Super Size Briquets to create that essential two-zone setup. This is crucial for getting that direct heat sear and then moving your meat for more gentle cooking.
- Preparing the Tri Tip: Once you’ve unwrapped your Tri Tip, pat it dry, and don’t forget to trim excess fat while keeping the good stuff. Heath shares a pro tip—make a small notch in the fat seam to help with slicing later on.
- Seasoning: Generously season every side of the Tri Tip with that tasty Steak & Chop Seasoning. Let it rest at room temperature to soak in those flavors while your grill gets up to temp.
- Searing Time: Sear the Tri Tip over the hot coals for about 4 minutes on each side. Heath flips it every 2 minutes to create that evenly caramelized crust. You’ll want to keep an eye on the temperature to ensure you don’t overcook it!
Final Touches
When your Tri Tip reaches that perfect internal temperature, it’s time to remove it from the grill and let it rest before slicing. Heath’s explanation of the slicing technique is a game-changer for getting those perfect cuts!
