Ingredients
- 1 cup lemon juice
- 1 cup soybean oil
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup black pepper
- 1/2 cup garlic salt (recommended: Lawry's)
- 1/2 cup chopped garlic
- 1/2 cup chopped dried onions
- 2 (4-pound) tri-tips, trimmed
Directions
To make the marinade, mix all of the ingredients except for the beef in a large mixing bowl. Place the trimmed tri-tips in a plastic container and pour the marinade over. Let stand in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours.
Heat grill to medium temperature.
Place tri-tips on grill at a 45 degree angle to establish grill marks and cook about 35 minutes, or until cooked to desired doneness. Remove the tri-tips from the grill and let rest about 2 to 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with your favorite side dishes.

This is the best tri-tip I have ever had! It was tender and juicy and so flavorful. I did follow others advice and used 1/2 garlic salt and 1/2 garlic powder in place of the garlic salt. I also used a mix of brown and white sugar for the sugar. I don't know if that makes any difference. All I know is this tri-tip was to die for. I already have plans to make it again !
