Yesterday February 10th was Paul's 27th birthday. When asked what he wanted to do for his birthday dinner, go out or stay in, he decided to stay in and for me to make dinner. Now what's for dinner? Tri-Tip, Coleslaw, Twice Baked Potatoes & Homemade Sourdough Bread. So Tuesday night we took the tri-tip and rubbed it down with none other than Santa Maria Seasoning and let it marinate in the fridge over night. Yummy. For those of you that don't know what Tri-Tip is or what Santa Maria Seasoning is, all I have to say to you is you poor deprived child!!! Tri-Tip is a type of steak, a beautiful piece of meat that is traditional smoked or bbqed, until perfection. Santa Maria Seasoning is a blend of spices. Here is a recipe for this blend
- 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons white pepper
- 2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 4 tablespoons granulated garlic
- 6 tablespoons salt
Mix together all ingredients in a small bowl.

Around 2pm on Wednesday I put the tri-tip in a dutch oven with a little bit of beef broth and put it in the oven at 350* and let it go... 5:30 and presto, a beautiful piece of yummy goodness (as Paul would say.) Follow that by Homemade Sourdough Bread, Twice Baked Potatoes & Coleslaw. So with that I think Mission Paul's B-Day Dinner = SUCCESS!!!
