Agree to disagree!

Or maybe you're not doing it right.

They're flavorless, cooked at any temp, which is why the santa maria style was invented...an attempt to give them flavor. But if it floats your boat, great.

Really? You mean the stick the meat, seasoned with some salt & pepper, on a spit over an open fire of coastal oak? That's all Santa Maria style is.

Or are you saying, if you season the meat, that means the meat is actually tasteless? (Do you use seasonings on any of your meats before you cook it?) Seems to me virually everyone on here uses some kind rub, marinade or injection. Then most also add wood chunks to their fire to add flavor. And finally most add some kind of sauce to the meat once it's ready. Does this mean we're all simply masking the fact that we actually cooked flavorless meat?

I'm not trying to argue with you but please do us a flavor and further explain your thoughts.

I hear that's because SauceHitter is using them.

I thought SM style had more to it than salt/pepper.

Because of the claims on this forum I purchased two tri tips- one choice and one prime and dry aged. Both were very tender and basically flavorless. After this experience I stated to research it. It seems I'm not alone in thinking this way about tri tip. But again, if this is what you like, enjoy.

I haven't made a tri-tip in a long time. I'd buy them un-trimmed with the fat cap still on. I'd score the fat and let the fat render into the meat until it's done... hmmm, I'm going to have to find some tri-tip now... it's been too long.

That part about why Santa Maria was invented is flat out not true. The true and original Santa Maria BBQ did not even use sirloin as a part of the cook. As for SM flavoring, it is a fairly straight forward salt, pepper & chile powder rub if you go true traditional on it.

As to flavor or not, I am not going to argue with you, it is your judgement and right to believe as you taste. I don't like Filet Mignon at all, won't eat it at half the price. And I get tired of people telling me it is the best tasting cut of beef, just ain't so for me. You don't like tri-tip, fair enough.

Tri tip is a great cut and it requires a little skill to get it right. Your Sammie came out great!

My experience has been very flavorful but slightly chewy rather than tender and flavorless.
