Total Time: 45 minutes
Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients
1 beef tri-tip roast (1-1/2 to 2 pounds)
1/2 cup prepared Italian dressing
6 cups assorted vegetables (onion wedges, 3/4-inch zucchini or yellow squash slices,
1-inch red bell pepper pieces, medium mushrooms)
Seasoning:
1 Tbs packed brown sugar
2 tsp cracked black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp dried thyme
Directions
Combine seasoning ingredients. Mix 1 teaspoon with dressing. Press remaining seasoning onto beef roast. Alternately thread vegetables onto 12-inch metal skewers; brush with dressing.
Place roast on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, uncovered, 35 to 45 minutes for medium rare to medium doneness, turning occasionally. Grill vegetables 20 to 25 minutes or until tender, turning occasionally.
Remove roast when instant-read thermometer registers 140°F for medium rare; 155°F for medium. Tent loosely with aluminum foil; let stand 10 minutes. (Temperature will continue to rise to 145°F for medium rare; 160°F for medium.) Carve across the grain into thin slices. Serve with vegetables.
Makes 6 to 8 servings.
