ingredients
- 1 pound spaghetti noodles
- 1 2-3 pounds tri tip
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
- 2 tablespoons BBQ seasoning
- 1 cup diced white onion
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 28 ounce can Muir Glen Organic Crushed Tomatoes with Basil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 6 oz can Muir Glen Organic Tomato Paste
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup chopped parsley
- Fresh basil, for garnish
Method
Step 1
Coat tri-tip with yellow mustard as a binder and season with BBQ seasoning. Insert a meat thermometer and smoke at 225°F until internal temperature reaches 135°F.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Sauté diced onion until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 more minute.
Step 4
Stir in crushed tomatoes, salt, brown sugar, bay leaf, 14 ounces water, and tomato paste. Simmer partially covered over medium-low heat for 90 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes.
Step 5
Once the tri-tip reaches 135°F, remove from smoker and sear over hot coals or in a cast-iron pan. Slice against the grain into thin strips.
Step 6
Remove bay leaf from the sauce. Stir in parsley, black pepper, and adjust seasoning with additional salt and brown sugar, if needed.
Step 7
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti noodles until al dente, according to package instructions. Drain.
Step 8
Plate spaghetti noodles, top with pasta sauce, and garnish with basil. Add sliced smoked tri-tip on top.
