Recipe Tips
If you don’t have any beef broth on hand, you can use water and beef bouillon. You can also use other flavors of broth in a pinch.
You can use other herbs, or remove the large sprigs of herbs, if preferred. These give the meat a lovely and aromatic flavor, but it won’t kill the dish to remove them.
There is no need to cut the baby potatoes. They will cook perfectly while whole.
You can cut the onion into smaller pieces, if preferred.
You can use oil instead of butter for searing the tri-tip.
This recipe must be made in a 6-quart, or bigger, instant pot.
