Introduction

Initially, this recipe may seem like allot of steps but it’s really easy and worth any trouble. I make little 3” sandwich, using a good quality dinner roll or a larger sandwich roll for a meal. I have gotten rave reviews and requests for a return engagement when I have made these for parties. Yippy!

Directions

Tri-Tip and Marinade:
Mix soy sauce, garlic, limejuice and salt and pepper together, and place in zip-lock bag. Place tri-tip roast in bag and marinate for at least 6 hours, turning over bag to ensure marinade reaches all parts of the roast. Grill tri-tip on outside grill or roast in oven at 375 degrees, fro about 40 minutes or until medium rare. Once cooled, slice tri-tip against the grain into thin slices. This tri tip is great for any meal.

Oven Roasted Red Onions:
Place sliced red onions in bowl, add olive oil, vinagar, salt and pepper and toss well with onions. Place onions on baking sheet and spread a part onion slices. Roast in 375º oven and bake for 30-40 minutes, until onions are somewhat browned. Let cool to room temperature.

Blue Cheese Aioli:
Mix all these ingredients and whisk until well blended.

To Assemble Sandwiches:
This is the easy part. Warm rolls then cut all the rolls you are going to need. Spread blue cheese aioli inside, then place sliced tri-tip and roasted red onions inside roll. That’s it. Yummy! Get the George Foreman grill out and get to grillin'.
Make 18-3" sliders.

    Incredible!
    Great Recipe, but the onions for 30-40 mins at 375 did not work. My onions were charcoal at the 20 minute mark, had to redo them...Brought them as an appetizer for Easter dinner, people were raving!! - 3/31/13
