With a new baby in the house, making dinner meant anything I could whip up in 30 minutes or anything I can toss into a slow cooker. I originally meant to make roast beef, but there was a great sale on tri-tip and so I decided to improvise. The result was this amazingly juicy and flavorful meat. Yum!
Slow Cooker Tri-tip
ingredients
- 3 lb Tri-tip
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 1 (1 oz) package dry onion soup mix
- fresh ground pepper
directions
1. Trim off a little of the fat from the meat.
2. Mix the dry onion soup mix with soy sauce in the slow cooker
3. Place the tri-tip in and cook on low for 20 hours or until the meat is tender enough to separate with fork.
notes
The meat by itself already has a lot of flavor, but you can also use the juice it cooked in as a dip, kind of like a french dip. Just make sure you separate the fat from the au jus.
