I was a bit nervous when I first mixed up the spices, as I didn't really care for the smell. But after cooking on the grill, this came out much better than I thought. A bit salty for my taste, so I might follow the suggestions of others and add some brown sugar when making again. Overall, a nice change from slapping BBQ sauce on.

Excellent choice for grilled tri tip roast. First time, I made the rub exactly as written. Second time, I corrected to 1 tsp salt and crushed celery seed instead of celery salt. Perfection! As other cooks recommended, moistened the meat with worchester sauce before the rub. Personal preferrence only.

Great Rub! A little on the salty side so be careful with the salt.

The best tri-tip I have ever cooked! I cooked it in the oven instead of the grill at 350 for an hour and a half. This made it a little more done than I would have liked(medium), but it was still very flavorful and juicy. Two hours in the frige before cooking is a must. This allows the flavors of the rub to penetrate the meat. I cooked mine fat side up in a roasting pan. Thanks again, I will be using this recipe again for sure!

Amazing!!! I rubbed the roast with the seasoning in the morning, left it in the fridge all day, and then broiled it for 17 minutes for dinner. The roast was so flavorful, juicy and perfectly pink in the middle.

Good, but a bit on the herby side for my family at least. I did substitute herbs for the herb salts, which may have helped with this. A bit of fine tuning may be in order to get the new ratios correct. Still, overall the flavor was very good.

Delicious, came out great. Followed advice of another reader, and rubbed a little worcestershire on both sides before rubbing on spices. Turned out great! Followed cooking directions to the tee and came out really tender.

I'm a transplant from California so I love the original Pappy's seasoning for Tri-Tip but I thought it's time to try something different. It's hard to get a cut of Tri-Tip in the northeast so I put this rub on steak and broiled it for 10 minutes. AMAZING!! Can't wait to try it on Tri-Tip on the grill! Thank you so much!

If you've never cooked a tri-tip roast, it's a must. It's the easiest, fastest, and tastiest roast that most people aren't aware of. This is an old family tried and true recipe that my sister discovered thru a friend many years ago. In my family we bake it in the oven, so good for people who don't like to grill. Great for serving to big parties cuz people just go crazy for it and will ask for the recipe. Using a dry rub and add a 1/4 cup of brown sugar, marinate overnite. The brown sugar balances out the saltiness of the rub. Make sure the meat is room temperature, and with the fat side up, bake in a 450 oven for 25 minutes. Then with the meat still in the oven, turn oven down to 350 and cook another 25 minutes for medium rare. If you want medium, leave in another 5 minutes. Do not cover with foil while baking, and make sure when it's done to leave it on the counter for 15 minutes to rest before slicing thin. If you don't let it rest, all the juice runs out and looks messy and dries out the meat. Served best with a salad and baked potato. Enjoy! This will be the most tastiest and easiest beef you've ever eaten. Most beef roasts take hours to bake, perfect for an after work dinner that you throw in the oven with baked potatoes and leave it alone. Always comes out perfect.

YUM! This was an excellent Rub. I will keep on using this, it was delicious. I did bake my Tri-Tip (after searing) @ 350 for about an hour or so, I like mine Medium Rare :)

This is an amazing rub! I BBQ'd for the first time (usually my husbands job) and this came out so well that my husband is afraid that I am now going to take over the grill! Even my kids who are not big beef fans loved it.

This was my first dry rub and everybody loved it. I did make a couple of changes, I read the other reviews and did cut out the salt and added 2TBS garlic powder, also increased the black pepper from 1/4 teaspoon to 1 teaspoon coarse black pepper, and I cooked it in a rotisserie. This is a keeper for sure.

This rub would have been 5 stars but it had way too much salt. I almost couldn't eat it because the salt was so strong. The cooking method worked great and the meat was very tender. I will make this again but only use half the salt next time.
