Looks yummy. I smoked a tri tip a few months ago, it was the best tasting beef I have ever had. I have a  snake River Farms try tip in the  freezer may try smoking it this weekend.

Looks great - how do you cook a tri tip - low and slow like a brisket or grilled more like a steak?

Thanks

I did mine low and slow with the smoke pot. Didn't take that long to cook though.

Nice cook. Great action shots and a wonderful cutting board. Did u make it?  They must grow cattle bigger out west because my tri-tip was somewhat smaller.

Just a head's UP.. with TriTips it's easy to not see where the grain turns.. Really important to cut these across the grain and at a bias so you get more face on your slices..

Had the cutting board custom made it's mesquite wood

I do it like a reverse seared steak. Slow roast on the indirect side of the grill (basket splitter in place) on the main grate until medium rare (130F), then a quick sear on each side on the lower grate (about 2 minutes on each side, flipping after 1 minute - so 2 shots on each side total) to get some nice crust. Secret ingredients - Oakridge BBQ Santa Maria style rub and red oak for smoke! 

Alternate method - rotisserie basket/OctoForks over direct heat.

I have not done tri tip for a while.... probably my favorite thing to GRILL for a gathering. I need to do one soon. Maybe next weekend
