    		tri-tip roast(or triangular roast) - It is a Californian term. The meat for this cut is taken from the middle meat across the back, just ahead of the hindquarters. Tri-tip roasts will vary from 1 1/2 to 2 pounds and are about two inches thick. While tri-tip is pretty much unknown east of California, asking for the 'bottom sirloin butt' would tell a butcher what you were looking for, even if he couldn't deliver it. It also is called 'triangular' roast because of its shape.
    History: Tri-tip became popular in the 1950s in Santa Maria, California, when it was known as 'Santa Maria tri-tip,' appropriate because of its triangular shape, not to mention the site of its discovery. Apparently that is any number of claimants in Santa Maria for the title of Discoverer of Tri-tip. - http://www.whatscookingamerica.net/Glossary/T.htm
