This basic recipe is a great jumping-off point for tri-tip lovers and is one of the many areas where the Anova Precision Oven shines. The oven is able to give you perfect sous vide results in much less time thanks to the use of steam and the food probe. Use the tri-tip in this recipe to impress your friends with sandwiches or a meal served with roasted potatoes and sautéed garlicky spinach.
Note: This recipe works best when there’s some airflow underneath the meat. The photos in this recipe show a perforated pan, which is now available to order through Anova. If you don't have one, placing a wire rack over a sheet pan works as a substitute.
