If you love the Tri Tip Steak at Cubby’s than you will love this recipe. And if you have never been to Cubby’s but love a good steak salad, that you need to give this one a try. You will love the lemon cilantro vinaigrette.

tri tip steak salad

Many of you know that I spend a lot of time in Provo, Utah.  When I visit my kids there we love to go out to eat.  And one place we always visit for lunch is Cubby’s.  Their food is great and they have some good options for my gluten free/dairy free girl, including their yummy salads.  I usually end up with a salad too.  And my favorite is their Tri Tip Steak Salad.

Steak Salad

I decided I would try and recreate it at home.  The salad is made up of all kinds of yummy goodness:  Roasted red peppers, tomatoes, green onions, toasted almonds, dried cherries and Blue  Cheese.

Cubby's Tri Trip Salad Ingredients

The salad is topped with slices of tri tip steak and a lemon cilantro vinaigrette.

This is a great salad to have when you have left over tri -tip or any cut of beef/steak.  I found a little bit of a shortcut though when you are in the mood for a good salad and you don’t have leftover meat.  I discovered that Costco carries this amazing fully cooked sliced beef.  It has only been seasoned with salt and pepper.  It comes in slices and then I just cut it into strips and topped my salad with it.  So easy and delicious!  It comes in a bag and is in the deli section.  It is different than the deli sliced roast beef for sandwiches.  This is thicker, like slices of a roast.  So technically I guess it wasn’t tri tip but it still was good!!

We ate this steak salad twice last week we liked it so much!

    Hi Leigh Ann,

    What is the brand (name) of the sliced beef you get at Costco and where do you get roasted red peppers? This is my new favorite salad!! Thanks so much!

      Tonie, I’m sorry but I don’t remember the name but it was in the deli section of Costco, it was not frozen. I buy my roasted red peppers at Trader Joes but most grocery stores carry them.

    I followed your recipe last night for a family get together and you hit the nail on the head! It really tasted just like Cubby’s, which is amazing. Thank you for creating this!

    This salad looks really good and filling. I have been looking for something cool to make during this hot weather, enough for two people. The only thing I have never liked is blue cheese, is there some type of cheese that would work with this salad.

      I am not a big blue cheese fan either and often substitute Gorgonzola for Blue Cheese.
