Wow so much info thanks guys! I may have to sear one and reverse sear the other.....
3 hours!? Jesus that seems like way too much, tri tip is not brisket and doesn't really smoke all that well. I cook mine over oak for 45minutes to an hour in direct at 300ish then reverse sear and it always turns out great. Throw the rub on an hour or so before and you'll be good.
I Just GOTTA direct you to the Tri-Tip Master Cut TD that was done earlier this year.
I won it with my very first attempt at Tri-Tip, so you can rest assured that there is some good stuff here, and that you can turn out a super Tri-Tip with no experience.... as long as you do your research!:becky:
By asking, you are doing your research!:becky:
Cheers and Good Luck!

Paddy- a lot of us do the reverse sear because of our smoker. Its easier to raise the temp and keep good smoke than it is to lower temps on many smokers. You don't have that problem on your OJL. I do like the reverse sear as it allows me to get the exact bark I'm looking for
