Tri Tip Steak with Red Wine Marinade

Ingredients:
- 4 tri tip steak
Red Wine Marinade:
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup red wine
- 2 Tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 4 cloves garlic (crushed)
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 1 Tablespoon CMM Everyday Beef Seasoning
Instructions:
- Make the marinade. Combine all ingredients for the marinade in a zip-top bag or a non-reactive glass bowl. Place the steak in the marinade, and massage or toss the steak to ensure it is evenly coated on all sides.
- Marinate the steaks. Place the bag or container of marinating steak in the refrigerator and allow the steak to marinate for 4-8 hours, or overnight.
- Preheat the grill. Set your grill to medium-high heat (around 450 degrees F) for two-zone cooking, with one high heat side, and one side with little to no heat.
- Sear the tri tip. Remove your steaks from the grill and carefully shake off any excess marinade or large pieces of herbs. Place the steaks on the high-heat side of the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, leaving the lid open.
- Finish grilling the tri tip. Once both sides have a nice sear, move the steaks to the low-heat side of the grill, close the lid, and cook to your desired doneness. 120-125 degrees F for rare, 130-135 for medium rare, 140-145 for medium, 150-155 for medium well, and 160-165 for well done. The time on this step varies by your desired doneness, but a medium rare steak should reach temperature in about 6-8 minutes.
