2 tablespoons finely diced shallots*
1 teaspoon oregano*

1/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

The rub:
In a bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well. Set aside.
THE TRI-TIP:
1. Preheat your grill with high heat. Using a wire brush, clean your grill and allow to get as hot as possible. Once grill is heated, apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the grill grates.
2. Evenly coat the steak with the tri-tip rub. Place the seasoned tri-tip on the hottest part of grill and cook for 3 minutes. Flip and place onto a new hot place on the grill to ensure you are cooking on the hottest spot possible. Cook for an additional 3 minutes, then reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to flip every 3 minutes until the internal temperature of the steak is 120 F.
3. Remove the steak from the grill and allow it to rest for 5 minutes. The internal temperature will continue to rise to anywhere between 125 F to 130 F, for a medium-rare steak.
4. Slice and serve with the chimichurri sauce on top of the steak.
