(Bill's new motto)

Made a Tri tip for dinner last night. I gotta say, some of best work, and it happened by no fault of my own.

Started out making a batch of my own beef rub

Rubbed it down and got it on kettle, indirect heat, probably 250ish, I didn't use a thermo. Sorry, pics are lacking..

Anyway, once it was on the grill I started making a batch of Marobuzo pickles for next weekend's BBQ and didn't bother to check the roast for a while.

When I finally checked it, the temp was already at 128! (that's hotter than I usually cook one including the sear) Anyway, I quick moved it over the flames and gave it a little sear, but only a couple minutes worth, as I didn't want to over cook the thing anymore than it already was. I will usually give it a real good crust, enough to raise the IT another 15-20 degrees or so. This time I raised it 2.

Anyway, the end result was by far the best Tri tip I've ever made. Just outstanding. It was evenly temped from edge to edge. After a long rest -
