Chef's Tips

  • Try grilling the Chimichangas along with the Tri Tip and vegetables.
  • Try grilling other El Monterey products such as: Burritos, Corn or Flour Taquitos, Cruncheros, and Tamales (leave the husk on the tamale for different masa flavor and texture, but take it off before topping with Tri Tip and vegetables.
  • Add a fresh green salad and your favorite dressing to make the meal complete.
  • Use a green salsa or pico de gallo for other topping options.
