Our take on the Nebraska Beef Tri Tip Beef Roast

Nebraska Beef Tri Tip Beef Roast is a fresh, boneless, dry-aged cut from family-farmed Nebraska cattle, sold unseasoned and unmarinated so you control the rub and cook. Tri tip is the California barbecue staple: a triangular roast with a coarse grain that slices like steak and takes well to high heat then a rest. It is lean and intensely beefy rather than marbled, so it rewards careful cooking and thin slicing against the grain.

What reviewers say

Tri tip is widely praised by grill owners as a flavorful, affordable alternative to steak or prime rib, with the caveat that it needs a good sear and thin slicing. Lean, dry-aged roasts like this one draw praise for beefiness but criticism when cooked past medium.

Pros
  • Big beef flavor for the price
  • Slices well for sandwiches and tacos
  • Takes a dry rub and smoke nicely
Cons
  • Tough and dry when overcooked
  • Uneven thickness makes even cooking tricky
  • Can be chewy if sliced the wrong way

Questions and answers

Is tri tip worth buying over steak?
Yes for feeding several people: one roast costs less per pound than ribeye or strip and slices into steak-like portions. It needs a sear and a rest, and it is less forgiving than a marbled steak.
How should I cook a tri tip roast?
Sear it hot on both sides, then finish over indirect heat to about 130°F for medium-rare, and rest 10 minutes. Slice thin against the grain, changing direction where the grain shifts.
Is this roast marinated or seasoned?
No. It ships fresh, unseasoned and unmarinated, so salt it ahead and add your own rub.
How many people does it serve?
Tri tip roasts typically run 2 to 3 pounds and serve about 4 to 6 people with sides. Plan roughly half a pound per person.
Is it bone-in?
No, it is boneless, which makes carving simpler and yields more edible meat per pound.
When is the price lowest?
Beef roast prices tend to dip around grilling season and major holiday sales. Check the price history here before buying.
