"Tri-tip is flavorful and well-marbled, but because it?s really a roast rather than a steak, salt and seasonings don?t affect it the same way they do a thinner cut. That?s where this Mediterranean-inspired relish comes in. The combination of roasted red pepper, sun-dried tomatoes, and capers adds savor to every bite...."
