Tri-Tip and Garlic Smooshed Potatoes

cowgirl · 06-02-2011, 12:33 AM

This is my second attempt at Tri-tip... I think I love these things.

Seasoned with Big Poppa's Double Secret Steak Rub ( I love it!) and added a few potatoes with olive oil, kosher salt and cracked black pepper.

smoked in the Memphis Pro until the tri tip reached an internal temp of 130, pulled the tatoes, turned up the heat to give the meat a quick sear.

sauted minced onions and garlic in butter, added flour, cream and seasonings to make my sauce. Then mixed in the cubed smoked potatoes.

The tri tip, garlic smooshed potatoes and salad..
It was kinda tasty!

Thanks for looking!

Oh, but we Californians just love that Tri-tip. Kinda grew up on it. Yours looks fabulous and the plate of food to go with it is just making my stomach growl...
Glad you can get it out there. Lotta folks can't.

Jeanie, every time you pop in it is with something gorgeous.

I have tried to do Tri Tip a few times and have not nailed it yet.

Thank you Marty! I wanted to try these and finally asked my butcher to find some for me. I think he is going to try carrying them here.. I hope he does.

Thank you Tim! It was tasty. :)

Terry, thanks!! I am trying to get the hang of cooking these things..

Thanks Shiz!

I can do some dishes. My girlfriend complains because I do them all by hand rather than using the dishwasher. I'm not sure why I do it this way but I rarely ever turn my dishwasher on. It hasn't run in a couple months now I know...

Sorry Mate, we've all asked the question. There's a long line up. Get in line.. I'm about 3 or 400 guys in front of you, and theres a thousand in front of me...

Jeanie, that's an awesome Tri Tip there! If you come and visit me, you'll have to bring the Memphis Pro AND the Hasty Bake with you!

Cheers!

Bill
