Michelle | Feb 28, 2005. Hello fellow 'hounds, I have a tri-tip roast, a little over 2 pounds, that I would like to roast in the oven. I've checked on-line, and all the instructions I find say to cook it at 425 degrees F. for a total of 30-40 minutes.
Roasts. How long to cook a tri-tip roast depends on its weight and shape. For an average-sized, 2-lb. roast that is about 2 inches thick, cook the roast on one side for 20 to 30 minutes.Turn the roast over and continue cooking to an internal temperature of 140 degrees F as measured with a meat thermometer.ri-tip strips cook to rare in about 8 to 10 minutes, and to medium in 12 to 14 minutes. This is the total cooking time, so turn the strips over at the halfway point -- 4 to 5 minutes on each side for rare, and 6 to 7 minutes on each side for medium.
