Thumbs up Tri Tip!!!!!!!

As some of you know my fridge is on it's last leg. Which is keeping away from keeping meats in my fridge for more than a day or so, not allowing me to be able to smoke for the time being. So today I ran into the Ralphs supermarket, got the tri tip on sale at 1.99/lb. Bolted home, started up the pit and grilled this piece to 145F internal. Had the pit going at 375F. Seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder, touch of cumin and lime juice.

Sorry no before pics! I was working against the clock and forgot.


Tossed in a 1/2 a red onion and a bell pepper to get my servings of veggies in.

Wow! Might I suggest not buying a new fridge, you know, considering this and all...

That is just what I like to see, big thick slices of meat. That looks like my dream meal.

That's how I like my meat too, helps keep the moisture in as well.

That is one great looking tri-tip! Was it trimmed or untrimmed at $1.99/lb? Either way, that is a steal at that price.

Untrimmed, and I didnt trim it until after it came off the cook. I like to use it's own fat for added flavor.
