Time 1h5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tri-tip roast (about 1 1/2 pounds)
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon salt-free seasoning pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 (26-ounce) jar traditional pasta sauce
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon dry mustard
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon honey

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill to medium heat.
  • Rinse roast with cold water and pat completely dry with paper towels. For the dry rub, in a small bowl, combine ingredients for dry rub. Place tri-tip on plate or platter and season with kosher salt. Rub a generous amount of dry rub into both sides of meat. Let set for 10 to 15 minutes. Repeat rub 2 to 3 times until all seasoning is used.
  • While meat is resting between rubs, prepare BBQ sauce. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine pasta sauce, chili powder, dry mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and honey. Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Set aside about half the sauce for serving, use half as a mop while grilling.
  • Oil grill or spray with cooking spray. Grill meat about 20 minutes total for medium-rare, turning and mopping with BBQ sauce every 5 minutes. Transfer meat to a cutting board. Tent with foil; let stand 10 minutes. Cut diagonally across the grain. Serve with extra sauce.
