tri-tip

Looked delicious. Smelled delicious. Tasted delicious. But huge disappointment on the chew. Was from a batch of Australian beef I got on sale back in February. Reverse seared to 130. Looked perfect, but man was this baby tough. Just the cow? Or is Australian beef known for this? It...

It’s been a while since I last cooked anything let alone posted a cook. Sorry for that but life is just very busy and hectic for us these days. It’s also been a while since I’ve had Tri Tip and it recently went on sale, so I picked up this 3.79 lb. behemoth. I took it out of the package...

TRI-TIP! Good second choice for a Spring grill session. And I have to say, it wasn't terrible! Help me, Rhonda. Went with Kosmos Cow Cover for the first layer, and then Montreal Steak for the second. Used Cow Cover on the Yukon Golds as well and Weber'ed them up too. Yum. Started low and...

I picked up a small tri-tip from Winco last week and decided to give it a little flavor from across the Pacific. I cook dozens of tri-tips a year, hundreds in my life and his one had the funkiest grain I have ever seen. But it tasted as good as any. In fact this my be my favorite of any Tir-Tip...

This is quite possibly the easiest grill hack ever. Inspiration hit me one day when I was adding fuel to my WSM and realized I had access to the bottom grate through the door but it's so obvious, I doubt I'm the first one to do it. (if anybody else has been doing this, let me know and I'll...

Hey Brethren, Been away for the last few months but it great to be back. Figured I would post a little bit of what I've been up though. Having fun looking at all the great posts again. You all rock! Some veggies for the chicken plates the other night. Tri-Tip! A 20"x38" offset for my...

Dang! I thought there was another week until the Tri-Tip Master Throwdown was over so I didn’t worry about staying up to get my post in by Monday. Again, Dang! We went to some friend’s house for Thanksgiving dinner so I didn’t cook anything until Saturday when I broke out this Tri-Tip from the...

Did I mention that Q-Salt tastes good on Tri-Tip? So I picked up some tri-tip steaks Saturday.... Sprkinled with Q-Salt.... Stuck them in the UDS with a shoulder and some ribs..... Sorry for the blue plate.....

Hey there Brethren, It's been much too long since I started a thread on were, or really did anything more than comment. So were are some pics fro m some recent cooks. This will probably be start of another "break" from posting as my son is to be born tomorrow morning. Hope you all enjoy my...

This Saturday I turned 60 and we had some friends over for a BBQ / potluck to commiserate errrr I mean celebrate. Friday I pulled 2 Tri-Tips and 3 large steaks out of the freezer to thaw. (1 - 1.75 lb. T-bone, 1 - 2.25 lb. Porterhouse and a monster 2.5 lb.Tt-bone) I seasoned up the Tri-Tips in...

A few nights ago, I cooked up a nice USDA Choice Tri-Tip, and it was served with some of The Missus' homemade Chimichurri sauce. Unfortunately, no pics of that. :tsk: Our usual method of repurposing leftover Tri-Tip is to make french dips, but given we still had a good amount of leftover...

Hey Folks, It's been some time since I posted a cook so I thought I would start with my prep for tomorrow nights dinner. Cooking a Tri-Tip, Get these untrimmed for $2.27 per pound when I buy by the case. Decided to marinade this time instead of the usual dry rub. Soy sauce, red pepper flakes...

Coooking up some tri-tip tonight. Son has some of his football teammates over. Using Paymaster's rub. Waiting for the white smoke to go away.

Hey Brethren, Been a couple of months since last post. I was been keeping the grills and smoker hot but have not had much time to be online. With the big camps and most of the river trips over for the year I thought I would jump back on. This is not much of a post really, but here are some pics...

My wife and son are on vacation for a few days, work got in the way for me this go around so I stayed home but I decided I was eating well. Last night I took a tri-tip over to a buddy's house. I made some tators quartered up, drizzled with truffle oil, sea salt and a little pepper and garlic...

You may remember that I just purchased a bulk package of Tri-Tips from Costco. Well today I got to slap one on the grill to celebrate a friend’s birthday. I started out by making up some horseradish cream sauce. Here are the ingredients. In a bowl and mixed up. I put that in the...

First try for a Tri-Tip (pun intended.) I picked up about a three lb Tri-Tip from HEB. I seasoned it with Montreal Steak Seasoning at about 10am this morning and put it back in the fridge. I pulled it out after 6 hours and dusted it with garlic powder and allowed it to get to room temp. I really...

My wife's cousins are up on the mountain visiting this week. They surprised my with a couple of tri-tips. (very nice of them) So tonight after work was the right time to cook them up. A little olive oil and Montreal and on they went. Given the time and the quantity of meat. I decided to go with...

Thought I would try a little something different last night. Being a west coaster I love some good tri-tip. Not as mush as I love brisket, but it's up there. But I wanted to mix it up a little bit. I really like to have the smoke flavor in in the meat its self so I don't really like to wrap it...

I work in a hospital, so it can be hard to get days off with my friends; but when we do, we make the most of it! No way this is going to be a bad day. Butt crack of dawn bike ride together. Then back to my place to get started on my very first throwdown. Rules: be a noob and part of...
