Frequently Asked Questions

The best store-bought tri-tip rub depends on the flavor profile you prefer. Salt, coarse black pepper, garlic, and herb-forward seasonings are classic choices, while SPG blends and savory beef rubs work especially well when you want the natural flavor of the tri-tip to remain the focus.
Salt, black pepper, garlic, onion, and savory herbs pair particularly well with tri-tip. Traditional Santa Maria-style seasoning commonly emphasizes salt, pepper, and garlic, while other tri-tip rubs may add herbs, chiles, paprika, or additional spices for a more complex flavor.
Santa Maria-style tri-tip seasoning is traditionally a savory, garlic and pepper-forward seasoning associated with California's Central Coast barbecue tradition. Recipes and commercial blends vary, but salt, black pepper, and garlic are commonly at the center of the flavor profile.
You can cook tri-tip shortly after applying the rub or season it several hours ahead of time. Seasoning in advance gives salt additional time to work into the meat. If you season your tri-tip several hours or overnight before cooking, keep it properly refrigerated until you're ready to grill or smoke it.
A binder isn't required. Most dry rubs will adhere to the natural moisture on the surface of the tri-tip. If you prefer to use one, apply only a thin coating of oil, mustard, or another binder before adding the seasoning.
Yes. Steak seasonings work extremely well on tri-tip because both benefit from similar savory flavors. Blends featuring salt, pepper, garlic, herbs, and other beef-friendly spices can be excellent choices for grilled, smoked, or reverse-seared tri-tip.
Absolutely. Salt, pepper, and garlic are an excellent match for tri-tip and provide plenty of savory flavor without overpowering the beef. SPG can be used by itself or as a base layer underneath another beef or BBQ rub.
Yes. Most tri-tip rubs are also excellent on ribeye, New York strip, sirloin, brisket, beef ribs, prime rib, burgers, and chuck roast. Savory garlic and pepper-forward blends are particularly versatile for grilling and smoking beef.
