This bulgogi is a great dish to make with beef tri-tip. An acidic marinade and slicing thinly across the grain of the meat turn this inexpensive tough cut tender.

Combine pear, onion, ginger, 1/2 cup soy sauce, and 2 garlic cloves in the jar of a blender or food processor and pulse until marinade is smooth. Place tri-tip into a resealable plastic bag with the marinade. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
