| 2 tsp | dry mustard |
| 1/2 tsp | salt |
| For the Meat: 1 sirloin tri-tip or top sirloin (about 2 lb) For the Seasoning: | |
| 1/2 tsp | salt |
| 1/2 tsp | pepper |

| For the Sides: Canned ranch-style beans | |
| 1 loaf | sourdough or French bread, sliced in half lengthwise, toasted and buttered |
Servings: 4
directions:
1. Combine marinade ingredients in a large bowl. Add meat; marinate for several hours.
2. Heat grill. (A charcoal grill stocked with oak charcoal is best, but a gas grill works well, too.)
3. Wipe excess marinade from meat. Apply meat seasoning.
4. Grill steak over medium until cooked to taste, usually 25 to 30 minutes. For medium-rare, the temperature should be 145°F.
5. Let meat rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Slice very thin. Serve with beans and toasted bread.
Zac's Tips:
For extra zing, marinate the meat overnight so it really absorbs the spices.
You can serve canned pinto or baked beans in place of the ranch-style beans.
As a kid, I’d drink milk with this dish, but nowadays I’d pair it with a nice India pale ale, like a Lagunitas.
What's Santa Maria Anyway?
The Santa Maria barbecue style dates back to ranchers’ feasts in 19th-century California. Try the original recipe from the Official Santa Maria Style BBQ site.
