Tri-Tip Sandwich with Chipotle Mayo
This Tri tip sandwich is sure to be a people pleaser. You can serve it two ways. The first is as a French dip sandwich by adding cheese and using the delicious juices leftover as a dipping sauce. I also like to add some chipotle mayo to mine. If you prefer a Philly Cheeses teak style sandwich just saute some peppers and onions and add to sandwich along with the cheese
