Chili Lime Tri Tip Tacos

[JimK]

Rummaging through the spice cabinet, I found some old Williams Sonoma chili lime rub. I had a tri tip in the fridge. Gee, what to do?

Here's the tri outta the cryo:

And rubbed down thoroughly:

Made a little guacamole for an app and some taco spread:

After a while on the cool side, moved it to direct for a quick sear (yeah, I stole a sample):

Resting for a few:

Turned out pretty good. Great flavor from the rub.

Plated with some black beans and rice:

Hope you all are having a great weekend. Those in the NE, stay warm and safe.
