Tri-Tip Street Tacos

Cook Time 1 hour

Serves 4 to 6

For the guacamole

  • 4 large ripe avocados
  • 1/3 cup finely diced white onion
  • 1 large jalapeno, finely diced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 small bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 large lime, juiced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Kosher salt, for seasoning

Pat the tri-tip dry with paper towels and season on all sides with the Salt Pepper + Chocolate Chile seasoning. Set at room temperature for one hour before cooking.

 

Heat a gas or charcoal grill for medium heat and insert your probe thermometer in the thickest part of the roast. We’re using our Meater+ probe. Set the probe to cook to 125 degrees F. Roast the tri-tip until it reaches 125 about 40 minutes. Remove the roast from the grill to rest and crank the grill for high direct cooking.

 

While the steak rests, make the guacamole. In a medium bowl smash together the avocados, onion, tomatoes, cilantro, and lime juice. Add the olive oil and season with salt. Taste and add more salt or lime, if needed.

 

Sear the tri-tip for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until charred and crispy. Set aside to rest briefly and toast the tortillas over high heat, they only need a few seconds per side.

 

Slice the tri-tip against the grain of the meat. Serve the slices in the toasted tortillas with the guacamole, crumbled cotija, more cilantro and hot sauce as desired.
