INSTRUCTIONS
CUMINUNLIME MARINADE
JALAPENO MARINADE
In Santa Maria along the Central Coast of California, a tradition was
started of barbecuing a marinated beef tri-tip and serving it with pinto
beans, sourdough bread and salsa. The two marinades featured here offer two
distinctively different flavors. Either is easy to prepare and is an
excellent complement to the robust flavor of the beef tri-tip.
Remove all fat and connective tissue from the tri-tips. Prepare marinade of
choice. Place tri-tips in non-reactive baking dish, such as glass or
enamel; pour in marinade and cover. Refrigerate at least 6 hours, but no
longer than 24 hours. Remove tri-tips from marinade and barbecue over
medium-hot coals, turning occasionally, about 35 minutes for rare. Brush
with oil frequently while barbecuing. To serve, cut across the grain into
thin slices and season to taste. Makes 12 servings.
CuminUnLime Marinade: Mix all ingredients together in a non-reactive bowl.
Makes about 2 1/4 cups.
Jalapeño Marinade: Place 1/2 cup wine, chiles, oregano and 2 tbsp oil in
blender or food processor fitted with the metal blade. Process until finely
minced. Stir in remaining oil and wine. Makes about 2 1/4 cups.
