  • 1 tbsp. honey
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 3 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tbsp. soy sauce

2 Grill Prep

3 The Cook

  • When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.

  • Place your tri-tip on the grate and reserve the remaining marinade in the bag.

  • Grill meat to desired doneness.The USDA recommends cooking steak until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F on a digital meat thermometer.
  • When ready, remove your tri-tip steak from the grill and let it rest for 15 minutes. In a small saucepan, bring your remaining marinade to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  • When your reduction sauce is ready, slice your tri-tip steak and top with sauce to serve.
