Nice thick slices, just the way I like.  Those taters are looking mighty good too!

I have never cook nor ate Tri-Tip and it costs more than Rib Eye.

Is Tri-Tip that much better than a Rib Eye?

Please don't take this as being sarcastic because I am just being curious.

I think tri-tip is the best beef for the price per pound there is
$6.50# the last time I bought it at Costco
it is a sirloin cut

Rib eye is my favorite, but more expensive here then tri tip. I also love straight sirloin steaks too.

tri's around here are normal around $5 lb.  costco sells the most trimmed one and the best price.  alot of the grocery stores do trim them very well and charge alot more money.  rib eyes and filets at costco are $7-$8 lb.  pretty good.

Good point on the Costco trimming. Their tri's are very well trimmed.

Another great Tri- tip cook Old Hickory ;)

When you going to try making the Trisket?

Mike, you make the trisket look and sound so good I am sure I will try it.

Savanasmoker, at cooking temp of 210* you can use 0.6hr/# for planning purposes.

CaptJack, your tri-tip looks beautiful.
