Wish I could get that cut down here.  I'd love to give it a try.

That's some good looking beef, Jack!

the sure does look good. 

[GusRobin]

Looks great.
As a OS newbie, a couple of questions:
1) did you try to control the cooking temp or did you just let it go?
2) How long did it take
3) How big was the tri -tip

Thanks - trying to "master" the OS

the way i set it up, with a pile of coals on the side
it's 1/2 chimney of lump oak coal
i light all of the charcoal in the chimney. no bed of unlit coal (Minion)
my grill/cabinet probe on my Maverick ran around 250°, the temp in the lid said 280°
the vents are 1/2 open on both the bottom and the lid
it took 1hr 20'mins for this 2#+ Tri-tip to get to 135°

Cuz, that OldSmokey is just purring along and turning out some great cooks. You've got her tuned up just right. That tri-tip looks delicious.

[sliding_billy]

That looks beautiful.

That Tri looks outstanding. The Tri's round here cost about $8/# so I go for a ribeye or P-House on sale @ that Price.

[TwoPockets]

I'd eat that!

Tri tip and casserole look delicious Jack!
