Cut from the edge of the sirloin, tri‑tip steaks boast bold flavour and generous marbling. They’re at their best when cooked quickly and kept rare to medium; push them much further and they can lose tenderness.
If you’re after a standout cut for the BBQ, tri‑tip is a winner. It thrives on a fiercely hot grill and soaks up marinades, rubs, and sauces beautifully. Serve it as a classic steak with your favourite sides or slice it thinly across the grain after resting and toss through a salad. It also makes an exceptional steak sandwich base juicy, flavour-packed, and impossible to resist.
