Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds tri-tip roast
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 12 slider buns
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 1 cup coleslaw (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt to create a dry rub.
- Rub the mixture all over the tri-tip roast, ensuring it is evenly coated.
- Place the tri-tip on the grill and cook for about 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until it reaches an internal temperature of 135°F for medium-rare.
- Remove the tri-tip from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- While the meat is resting, warm the slider buns on the grill for about 2 minutes.
- Slice the tri-tip against the grain into thin slices.
- Assemble the sliders by placing a few slices of tri-tip onto each bun, adding a drizzle of barbecue sauce and a spoonful of coleslaw if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- For a spicier version, add cayenne pepper to the dry rub.
- Feel free to use your favorite barbecue sauce for added flavor.
- Leftover tri-tip can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
