Peppery Beef Tri-Tip Roast image

From Nathalie Dupree, a very simple way to make this very tasty cut of beef. Cut from the bottom triangle of the sirloin, the tri-tip is an irregular triangle that provides well done meat at the ends of its triangle, with more rare pieces on the thicker point. If only one temperature of meat is desired, the bottom points may be tied together making a thicker roast that has all parts cook more evenly. It is important to remove it from the oven ten minutes before carving to enable the temperature to rise and for the roast to rest and let its juices redistribute. You can also use rosemary or other herbs or combinations of hearbs in the rub.
