2.5 lb tri-tip roast
3 minced garlic cloves
1.5 tsp salt
1 tbsp black pepper, coarse
1 tbsp cooking oil
1 cup salsa
2 cups, cooked pinquito beans

How to cook it

Rub the tri-tip all over with the garlic, salt, and pepper and let sit at room temperature 30 minutes.
Heat a grill for direct and indirect heat.
Sear the tri-tip over the hottest part of the grill until browned on both sides, about 4 minutes per side.
Move to indirect heat and cook, turning occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer reads 130F for medium-rare, about 25 minutes more.
Rest the meat 10 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain, watching for the grain to change direction partway through the roast.
Serve with the salsa and warmed pinquito beans alongside.
