I received a food wish for roast beef recently, which can be done with many different cuts. I ended up deciding on beef tri-tip, since it's affordable, flavorful, great for parties, and, using this low-temp roasting technique, nearly fool-proof. No marinating, no searing, no nothing; just rub on some salt and spices and pop it into the oven until it reaches the doneness you want. Plate it up with a Romano bean salad or enjoy as a roast beef sandwich!

👨‍🍳 Instructions

Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).

Mix salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, dried rosemary, and fresh rosemary together in a small bowl.

Place tri-tip in a baking pan.

Season generously with the spice rub until both sides are completely covered.

Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium-rare, or until desired doneness, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Flip meat over halfway.

Cover pan with aluminum foil and let meat rest for 20 minutes.

Remove tri-tip to a cutting board and cut into 2 pieces along where the grain changes direction.

Slice meat across the grain and transfer to serving plates.

Mix beef broth in with the pan drippings and drizzle over the slices.
