Default Tri-Tip Santa Maria style in the BGE w/pron
I just really love tri-tip santa maria style w/red oak coals so I attempted it tonight in my large BGE. I figured red oak(lots) on top of lump and I should be ok if I don't crisp out the tri-tip.

I used Santa Maria rub and put it on a hot (500 deg) grill for a quick sear on each side, then dropped the temp down to 350 for an hour. I pulled it when it was 140 (too late, hey I was watching basketball!) and tented it for 20 minutes.

Bottom line. Too smokey, because I had to suffocate the fire due to the short distance from the coals to the meat. I really want a real Santa Maria rig.....

However, that said, the meat was really moist and tender. Even my wife liked it. Whew! I will live another day. Sorry the picture on the grill is out of focus..

The plate is the leftovers.......just me and the wife now!

That sure looks good to me. One of the things I have done with my kettle is build the fire unevenly to get a hot and cool side to the grate. I am not sure it can be done on a BGE.

Yeah, I tried really hard to separate the sides, but it is kinda tough to do. Maybe on an XL. Maybe I could make a little thingy to pull the grill up and down.....

So that's what I smell outside!

It looks good Marty but sounds like you might have got a little bad smoke there.

Here's a post from BGE Tri-Tip that JD McGee cooked that I've found helpful with my BGE tri-tip cooks.

If you'd like to be able to put a little more distance between the lump and your grill and still cook direct, maybe you should check out the adjustable rig.

OK, Marty dropped off a few slices of his tri-tip for me to try.

Marty- it's no good. If you bring the rest over to me I'll properly dispose of it.

Seriously, it's quite tasty! Not too smokey for my pallet. Nice job!
