Ingredients

Beef Ingredients

3 lbs Beef Tri Tip
3 tbsp Dad's All Purpose rub
1 tbsp Olive oil

Ponzu Sauce Ingredients

4 tbsp Rice vinegar
2 tbsp Soy sauce
2 Limes
1 Lemon
1 tbsp Minced ginger
2 cloves Minced garlic

Additional Toppings

3 stems Chopped green onions
1 tbsp Sesame oil
1/2 tbsp Chili crisp
1/2 tbsp Toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

Start with removing any fat and silver skin off the meat. Coat the tri tip with a little bit of olive oil as the binder and season with Dad's all purpose rub. Set aside and allow the meat to absorb the spices.
In a bowl, add rice vinegar, soy sauce, freshly squeezed lime and lemon juice and minced ginger and garlic. Mix the ingredients together and set aside.
Preheat the grill to 500 degrees and sear the steak 2 minutes per side until you have a nice crust all around.
Next move the tri tip to the indirect side and cook until the internal temp reaches 120 degrees for a medium rare finish.
Set aside the grilled trip tip steak to rest for 10 minutes.
To garnish the dish, start by slicing thin layers of the steak. Next, strain the ponzu sauce into a clean dish to remove any of the ginger pieces. Place the sliced beef tri tip on a platter and gently pour the strained ponzu sauce around the beef. Add the sesame oil around, sprinkle with finely chopped green onion and toasted sesame seeds.
