- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1/2 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine all seasoning ingredients. Rub this mixture generously over the tri tip roast. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
