Texas Tri-Tip on a Potato Bun
Our Tri-Tip leans on barbecue rub and patience: built on a slow, honest base, then finished on a Potato Bun.
Ingredients
What you'll need
- 1 lb tri-tip
- 2 tsp barbecue rub
- 1 medium brown sugar
- 1 lb smoked paprika
- a pinch yellow onion
- 4 oz kosher salt
- 1/4 cup cracked black pepper
- to taste a squeeze of citrus
Method
Step by step
- Season the tri-tip generously and let it sit while you prep the aromatics.
- Build the base: cook the onion, garlic and spices until soft and fragrant.
- Add the tri-tip and cook it through, letting it take on color and soak up the seasoning.
- Rest briefly, adjust the salt and acid, and finish with fresh herbs before serving.
