Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place pre-marinated frozen Celebrity Burgundy Tri-Tip on roasting pan and place in oven. After fifteen minutes reduce the heat to 350 degrees. Cook about an additional 30 minutes for medium rare, 10 minutes longer for medium, and 20 minutes longer for well done. (Kitchen Hint: Test center of meat for doneness with a meat thermometer. center of the meat should read at least 145 degrees for medium rare, 160 degrees for medium, and 170 degrees for well done.) While roast is cooking, slice onions in long fine shreds. Heat olive oil over medium heat in heavy sauté pan; add onions and salt and reduce heat to very low. Cook onions as slowly as possible, stirring occasionally. About five minutes before serving sandwiches, raise heat under pan to medium and add sugar and Worcestershire sauce. Stir constantly until onions achieve golden brown color. (Kitchen Hint: Recipe may be doubled or tripled. Allow at least one onion for every 2 persons.) Remove tri-tip roast from oven and allow to rest, covered lightly in foil, for about ten minutes. Slice thinly and pour pan juices over meat before placing on sandwich rolls. Divide caramelized onions among sandwiches and serve with barbecue sauce and horseradish sauce.
