I got two trimmed tri-tips for a steal from Vallarta :thumbup:

Coated them with Zach's Brisket rub then onto the Memphis at 225F

Stay tuned :P

That is a steal. Asked my Costco yesterday why they don't carry tri-tip. He said they were discontinued in the Midwest for not selling that well. Shame on the Midwest:(

Next to impossible to find tri around here and if I do they are more than a high end steak. 
Love to cook and eat

California we are lucky to get cheap tri-tips. Brisket is so expensive! That is why Triskets are so good.

So now the IT reached 140F. I pulled them. Double wrapped in foil. Then back on the Memphis bumped up to 300F until the IT of the tri-tips hits 200F...

Great deal Mike. The only way I can get tri-tip here is to order thru my butcher. And it must be a full case weighing between 25 - 30 lbs. But I do get a 15% discount on price/lb.
I still have not done a trisket. Every time I have tried, I panic when i get to 125F IT and pull by 130F!
I just like my beef med. rare and shudder at it any higher.  ::)

Pulled them off at 197F and 200F IT and gave them time to cool. One of them I left foiled for the girlfriend. Sliced the other and served with salad and garlic bread. Was so tender and had an excellent flavor!

Looks very nice Mike! Excellent job! I guess I'm just gonna have to drop by your pad to try trisket. I just can't seem to cook my beef past 130F! ::)

Brisket is beef. You don't cook that past 130F either? :P

Actually I stopped buying briskets in favor of tri-tip. Shorties and tri-tip are my favorite cuts.  I was thinking I do cook my chuckies that high....but you just about have to unless it's SV'ed.

A few years back I made a Trisket while camping.   I had called Muebe to make sure I had all the right directions and went for it.  It was without a doubt some of the best beef I have made while camping. 

If you never tried one do one,  well worth the time and effort

Hey Mike, I agree with Gene and Don. That trisket looks delicious!

Have 9 peeled Prime grade tri-tips in the freezer right now that I picked up from Costco but every time I think about a Trisket I cringe ... My local Costco has Prime grade brisket for around $2.50/lb and I think I'll pick one up and save the tri-tips for medium rare  :D  ;)
