I love my husband! He is so supportive of everything that I want to do and totally embraces it. He’s always given his suggestions on what he wants for supper, but ever since I started blogging he discusses cooking and recipes with all sorts of people. I think he is secretly trying to get more great ideas for me to make and write about.
John has talked to our local barista about her “famous hamburgers” (which we will be trying soon), his co-workers, the dentist…seriously he talks food more than I do. So, when he came home talking about this recipe from a co-worker, we ran out the following weekend to get the tri-tip to make it. I wasn’t expecting it to turn out like a pot roast, but it does and it is to-die-for! Tri-tip is a great cut of meat and very flavorful…so this “pot roast” has a great steak, beefy flavor and less of the traditional roast flavor you typically get from a slow cooker pot roast recipe. Of course, all the wonderful spices add to it as well.

Thanks for letting me know. It’s all fixed. w-
Sounds wonderful. I’m gonna try it soon. SF Bay Area- Tri Tips standard fare here. Only Grilled them though.
Recipe calls for Tri Tip Strips- I am familiar with whole Tri Tip roasts. Should I cut it into strips? If so, how thick?
Thanks
Doug, I would just leave it whole. :). Let me know how you like it.
Never heard of a tri-tip roast..Are they from “NEW YORK CITY” ?????
Strange. I’m in AZ and they are all over here…much be a regional cut.
It seems like a long cooking time on “High”. Most pot roast recipes call for 8 hours on “Low”. Just ask’in.
This sounds so good I am going to try it soon.
Well, we are having pot roast tonight–so when I found this on your site that was an extra bonus for us– thanks– every little extra always helps to change things up, makes a more interesting meal–instead of the same thing over and over again.
Your recipes sound so good. Just plain good food. Love it. This roast makes me hungry for Sunday dinner already. Thanks.
Oh this sounds delicious! I don’t think I have ever bought or cooked a tri tip. I will put it on my list next time I get groceries.
Tri-tip is absolutely great, have never tried it as a roast per say but have smoked it and it is tender and delicious. Will have to try it this way.
