Sunday Tri-tip & Chimichurri

[Erik Tracy]

I had a nice tri-tip stashed in the freezer I took out Saturday to grill up for Sunday dinner. A light rubbing with canola oil, then a simple dusting of kosher salt and coarse black pepper. Seared over KBB on my WSM.

I did a twist on an on-line chimichurri recipe I found by substituting cilantro for parsley and dropped in some dried green chile flakes. Sides were fresh garden salad, pan seared baby red potatoes, and...yep..the last of the sourdough bread.

The Sobon Estates Cab paired quite nicely with the tri-tip.

Nice! Was Sobon at Total Wine by you? Or did you order winery direct?

We’re friends with the Sobon family. Great people!

KBB = Kingsford Blue Bag charcoal
WSM = Weber Smokey Mountain (but for grilling I put the grate right over the charcoal ring to get a hot sear).
