I'm not a huge fan of tri-tip roast, but I thought this recipe was pretty good. The harissa crust was flavorful and the meat was tender. I would definitely make it again.

This recipe was amazing! The harissa crust was flavorful and the meat was cooked perfectly. I served it with roasted vegetables and a simple salad. It was a great meal for a weeknight dinner.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The harissa crust was a bit too salty for my taste and the meat was a bit dry. I might try it again with some adjustments.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but I loved the flavor of the harissa crust. Next time I'll try using less harissa or a milder variety.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had used more harissa. I'll definitely try it again with a few adjustments.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tri-tip roast turned out dry and tough. I followed the recipe exactly, but I think I might have overcooked it. I'll try it again soon and make sure to cook it for less time.

This tri-tip roast was a hit with my family! The harissa crust was flavorful and added a nice kick to the tender meat. We served it with roasted vegetables and grilled pita bread. Will definitely make this again.
