(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Steak

Ingredients

  • 1 cube beef bouillon
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire
  • Juice of 2 lemons
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
  • Kosher salt and pepper
  • 6 sprigs thyme
  • 4 sprigs rosemary
  • 1 bunch scallions, cut into large pieces
  • 1 1/2 lbs beef tri-tip, trimmed of excess fat
  • 1 lb cremini mushrooms
  • 2 red bell peppers, cut into large chunks
  • 1 garlic clove, smashed

Directions

  1. Combine 3/4 cup hot water and the bouillon cube in a small glass baking dish; stir to dissolve. Whisk in 2 tbsp olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire, juice of 1 lemon, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Tear 4 sprigs of thyme and 3 sprigs rosemary into pieces; add to the marinade along with the scallions. Let cool.

  2. Using a fork, pierce the meat all over at 2-inch intervals. Add to the marinade, making sure it is completely submerged. Cover and refrigerate 3-8 hrs.

  3. Remove the meat from the fridge about 1 hour before grilling. Put the mushrooms and bell pepper in a large bowl. Tear the remaining thyme and rosemary into pieces and add to the bowl along with garlic, 2 tbsp olive oil, and juice of 1/2 lemon. Season with salt and pepper and toss.

  4. Preheat a grill to medium, then prepare for indirect heat. Remove meat from the marinade and pat dry, reserving the marinade. Grill the meat, turning often, until charred, 15-20 minutes. Scatter the herbs from the marinade on the meat as it cooks. Move the meat to the cooler side of the grill; cover and cook, turning and basting a few times with the reserved marinade, until it reaches desired doneness. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest at least 10 minutes.

  5. Meanwhile, add the mushrooms and peppers to the grill over direct heat; cook, turning a few times, brushing with the juice of the remaining 1/2 lemon and seasoning with salt, until charred and tender, 10-15 minutes. Arrange the scallions from the marinade on the grill and cook 2-3 minutes per side. Slice the steak against the grain and serve with the veggies.
