After a wonderful Thanksgiving and some great turkey, a few days of leftovers and sammies, I had this hunger and desire for
some beef, so pulled a pkg of tri-tip from the freezer. Both are untrimed.

Seasoned both and ready for the smoker.

Oh yeah, I was ready for some beef (cut across the grain ), and of course a glass of wine. An 'o8' Cab, and it was excelent.

I basically did the same cook yesterday with the same rub.....but no FTC. Do you think that helps tenderize the meet? Mine was good......but always looking for better. I also pulled mine at 133, 125 would have been better.

your plate looks great. i have never tried the oakridge santa maria rub. you like it? always looking for something to put on california prime (tri tip).

Sparky, try Awake-a-Steak on tri-tip. WOW!

Pappy, I like to full foil for at least a 15' rest after cooking. To me it stays more moist. The two hours in foil this time was a matter of time coordination for dinner. It was still hot at the time for serving.
Sparky, the Oak Ridge Santa Maria seasoning is great. It has been my go to for tri-tip for over a year. I think it enhances the taste of a good cut of meat.

Great looking plate of beef there!!
-
Very good call after all that turkey!! Time to get back to red meat!!

I was taught to roast tri tip on high heat so y'all please explain the what's and how's of smoking it.

I pre-heat the Bradley to 250*, put the tri-tip in 2n'd rack from the bottom, then adjust cooking temp to 210* for low and slow. Comes out great every time.

How long for say a 2 to 2 1/2 lb. tri tip smoking at 210?
PS I could eat a plate of two of that. Nice.

Now that my friends is a good looking plate of food!! Nice job!!

Tried it.....screwed it up. Melted a spot on my deck with my chimney starter. Composite decking and charcoal are not friends. Don't want to talk about it. Wife was impressed with my charcoal skills. I will push on....Trisket is not dead for me.

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.

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.
