Oven-Roasted Tri Tip Steak

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Use a roasting pan with a rack on the bottom.

Step 2

Rub the roast liberally with the Santa Maria rub. Place meat in the prepared roasting pan.

Step 3

Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue roasting meat for another 10 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 125 degrees F (for medium rare). Let rest for 10 minutes before thinly slicing against the grain.
