-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 tri-tip roast (about 3 lbs.)
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup oak chips or chunks -- soaked in water for at least 30 minutes and drained
1 cup Mexican beer

Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill. Season the roast allover with
salt and pepper. Pour the beer in a bowl. Place the drained oak chips on the
hot coals. When you see the first wisp of smoke from the wood, place the
beef on the grill. Grill the roast, covered, for about 10 minutes on each
side, basting with the beer every 5 minutes. The roast is done when the
internal temperature reaches 140"F. Let the beef rest for 10 minutes, then
slice and serve.

Description:
"Tri-tip is the triangular-shaped roast from the bottom sirloin. To grill it
Mexican-style, simply season it with salt and pepper, mop it with Mexican
beer, and turn it every 10 minutes until medium-rare. It tastes best on a
charcoal grill and is delicious served with warm flour tortillas and
frijoles refrito."
