Grilled Soy and Lime Beef Tri-Tip
- 1 1/2 cups apple juice
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons seasoned salt
- 3 tablespoons dark corn syrup
- 2 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 1/2 teaspoons MSG (optional)
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 beef tri-tip (approximately 2 1/2 pounds)
- 2 beef bouillon cubes
- In a shallow baking dish or resealable plastic bag, combine the marinade ingredients and mix well.
- Add the beef and cover or seal.
- Marinate in the refrigerator for 4 to 12 hours.
- When ready to cook, grind the beef bouillon cubes into a powder.
- Remove the tri-tip from the marinade, discard the marinade, and pat the meat dry.
- Sprinkle the meat evenly with the bouillon powder and pat so it adheres to the meat.
- Build a charcoal and/or wood fire on one side of the grill, leaving the other side void.
- This will create two zones for cooking, indirect and direct.
- Grill the tri-tip directly over the hot coals (approximately 500F) for 4 to 5 minutes on each side.
- Move the beef to the cool side of the grill (approximately 300F), close the cover, and cook for an additional 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the tri-tip reaches 135 to 145F for medium rare to medium.
- Let the beef rest under tented foil for 15 minutes before slicing.
- Direct and Indirect heat
