Cover the tri-tip with the marinade and let sit for 3 days (minimum of 6 hours if on a time crunch). Season tri-tip with salt and pepper. When ready to cook, start Traeger according to grill instructions. Set temperature @ 450ºF/232ºC (set @ 500ºF/260ºC if using a WiFIRE-enabled grill). Brown tri-tip on all sides, rotating when necessary. Grill tri-tip 30-40 minutes total. Remove from grill and allow to rest 10 minutes before slicing against the grain. FOR THE PICO DE GALLO: In a medium-sized bowl, toss all ingredients with lime juice and salt. Serve sliced tri-tip with pico de gallo. Enjoy! CHEF'S NOTE: The marinade breaks meat down and sweetens it in a way that even though you may have to cook it more than medium-rare you still get this great flavor and char because of the marinade.
