Tender & juicy Barbecue Tri-Tip Roast – super easy, positively delicious – any time of year. Perfect for weeknight dinners, summer bbq’s & parties.
Do you grill in the winter? I grew up in the mild climate of So Cal – so I’m used to grilling year-round. So just because we now live in North Idaho there is snow on the ground that doesn’t mean that I pack my BBQ away.
Well- we do tuck it away in the garage for storage to protect it from the weather. However, nothing really stops us from shoveling the snow off the porch & moving the grill back out to make some amazing recipes.
One of our favorites – BBQ Tri-Tip Roast. It’s great right off the grill with a side of baked potatos. But my favorite is the leftovers that I can use for a delicious sandwich the next day.

You see – we had a really nice day. The snow had started to melt off a little & that made it the perfect day to grill.
Here’s the roast as it’s searing.
We brushed on a little bbq sauce when the meat was ready. Mmmmmmm
Here are some commonly asked questions
Can I use frozen tri-tip?
You can use previously frozen, but thawed tri-tip. But unlike when cooking in the pressure cooker, you will need this to be either fresh or thawed before placing on the grill.
How many can this serve?
This recipe makes enough to serve our family of 5 adult appetites with a bit leftover. Of course, this depends on portion sizes & how thick you cut the slices.

Can this recipe be doubled?
You can, and we do it often. Just double those seasoning and add them to a second roast. Cook them side-by-side.
Look at all those delicious slices. I’m telling you – perfect for a sandwich. YUM!

At our house, we love the original sauce best too. And we also love to grill year round. Your pictures of snow in the background make me smile—we’ve done that too on rare occasion.

Awww – thanks so much Britta. We lived outside of Vegas/Death Valley area for 8 long years – so I know what you mean about the desert winters. 🙂 They can be unpredictable. Hope you are having a wonderful week-
