Description:
Tri-tip is a triangular shaped cut of beef from very bottom of the bottom sirloin, near the flank steak. It is highly marbled and perfect for grilling, smoking, and roasting. It produces juicy, flavorful slices of beef that are perfect for serving like slices of steak or chopping up and stuffing in tacos!
The Tri-tip is most commonly found in California, but you can ask most butchers in the US and they’ll know what it is and be able to cut it for you. This classic California cut is actually making waves recently and becoming much more popular in the rest of the US!
