Shiraz-Soy Tri-Tip





Yields
Makes 8 to 10 servings



Total Time
2 hrs 35 mins

Notes: Brush some of the marinade on bell peppers and onions; grill them next to the meat for about 15 minutes. (Stop brushing on marinade at least 5 minutes before veggies are done, so heat can kill any bacteria from meat.) Prep and cook time: about 35 minutes, plus at least 2 hours to marinate.

Shiraz-Soy Tri-Tip




Thomas J. Story
 3/4 cup Shiraz (Syrah) wine
 2/3 cup soy sauce
 1/4 cup vegetable oil
 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
 1/4 cup lemon juice
 2 tablespoons Worcestershire
 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
 1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
 1 beef tri-tip (about 2 1/2 lb.), fat trimmed, rinsed and patted dry
Step 1
1

In a gallon-size zip-lock plastic bag, combine Shiraz, soy sauce, oil, vinegar, lemon juice, Worcestershire, mustard, and garlic. Add tri-tip and seal bag. Chill at least 2 hours or up to 1 day, turning occasionally.

Lightly oil a barbecue grill over a solid bed of medium coals or medium heat on a gas grill (you can hold your hand at grill level only 4 to 5 seconds). Lift tri-tip from marinade and lay on hot grill; discard marinade. Close lid on gas grill. Cook tri-tip, turning every 5 minutes, until rare in center of thickest part (still pink; cut to test), 125° to 130° on a thermometer, about 25 minutes, or until as done as you like.
