dozer996 Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Those are some really nice looking Choice Tips and the price is right. Oak Ridge Santa Maria rub or SPOG and cook indirect around 250* until internal temp is around 120*, then ramp up the heat and flip the top grate over the coals and sear for 3-5 mins a side, form that nice char. Don't let it go over 130* Remember to slice against the grain and on the bias. I love this cut, best beef flavor!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith OctoForks Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Yes I don't think you can do better than salt pepper garlic. If you haven't cooked a TT or don't know ...This is the most important thing with tri tips 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 I'm a big Santa Maria style for tri-tips. I use Oakridge BBQ's Santa Maria rub. Killer! Also, why I try and keep some red oak around. I'm currently out, so need to order more from Fruita. I typically use the splits. Dozer's cooking tips are spot on - medium rare is the way to go. It is also amenable to reverse searing. I've done both techniques with equal success. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dstr8 Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Costco tri-tips are very consistent. I've seen "Prime" grade tri-tips at Costco on occasion but usually the less expensive "Choice" grade has at least or often times more fat marbling than their Prime grade. I've cooked them a myriad of ways but prefer simple kosher salt & fresh course ground black pepper and hot smoke grilled over cocochar lump with Red Oak chunks (Santa Maria style). I pull them when they get to 125F internal and then tent very loosely with foil for a minimum 15-minute rest ... 20-minutes is even better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billg71 Posted May 11, 2017 Report Share Posted May 11, 2017 For tri-tip I reverse-sear at 250-275 to an internal temp of 120 or so, crank up the heat and sear to medium-rare. I tend to keep seasoning to salt and pepper but YMMV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
