Santa Maria Bbq

Instructions

Heat your grill to a low temperature.

Use half of the seasoning mixture to coat all over the tri-tips. Let rest for 30 minutes at room temperature. Place the tri-tips over a low temperature fire, 1 with fat side up, and the other with fat side down. Turn as the first side gets crispy, approximately 6 to 8 minutes. Just keep a close eye out for flare-ups.
Continue to turn tri-tips about every 5 minutes. After every turn, baste with sauce and season lightly, 4 times per side. Continue turning until the tri-tips are cooked to your liking. Remove from fire and let rest for 10 minutes before cutting into 1/2-inch slices against the grain.
