This is a super easy and delicious recipe. Depending on the region of the country you live in this cut of meat has many names: The California cut, Bottom sirloin tip, Triangle cut, Bottom sirloin primal cut, Santa Maria cut, Newport steak, or Bottom sirloin butt (but it’s NOT called a rump roast – totally different!) ~ Grace O —Grace O

This is outstanding. I only used smoked salt on a tri-tip cut and cooked to a perfect medium. It was easy and the resulting cold cuts made the best leftovers. I didn’t really understand how delicious and easy this could be, as well as economical — and might I add green as I am now no longer throwing away as much plastic packaging. Thank you, Grace!
