I think Jack’s on to it. Sirloin does come in tri-tips As for the fainting, that’s an old punch line about any father discovering after the delivery that he’s got more than one child. (OMG, the diaper bill, etc.)
The tri tip is a cut of beef from the bottom sirloin (sub prime cut). It’s usually 1.5-2.5 pounds and is usually marketed as a trip tip roast.Before the 1950s, it was ground into hamburger, but a Santa Maria chef rubbed it with seasonings and grilled it directly over red oak wood chips to medium rare and it caught on. It’s often labeled “Santa Maria Steak” as a result. You can also roast it on a rotisserie, smoke it in a pit or braise it in a Dutch oven and then after cooking slice the meat across the grain. (Here in Florida, the grocery stores sell it as tri-tip roast, in New York it’s marketed as Newport Steak.)

I didn’t know that tri-tips were a cut of beef until I lived in California (for those questioning this comic).

So, this comic makes sense only for people who live in California? I’ve never heard the term before.
