  4. Heat a grill pan until it is near smoking and grill seasoned tri tip for 3 to 4 minutes on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes in total. The meat will be rare and finished on a grill to order at plating.

  7. To Serve: Arrange on plate at 12 o’clock. Slice tri tip, grill to desired doneness, and arrange on plate at 6 o’clock.
  8. Add Pepper Sauce to a small sauté pan and heat with a chunk of Pepper Butter; whisking until butter is just melted and sauce is silky.
  9. Spoon generous amount of sauce over tri tip and vegetables.
