Mislabelled TriTip?

[jwtseng]

All I can say is wow. I was walking through Safeway today and spied this beauty nestled amongst all the Choice tritip. It was labelled (and priced) as Choice!

Craziness!

Wow, that is a fantastic tri-tip. Of course, it could be from a Choice grade carcass, but, it is gonna eat like Prime.


Why did you cut it like that?

 

[COS]

Good find, I'm with landarc why you cut it that way?

Total CRAP!!!

Send it here and I will dispose of properly!!!

I was dying to see what the insides looked like lol....actually I'm trying two different rubs and splitting it up into two meals

 

[SmokinM]

Wow that's awesome. How much a pound? Hopefully you picked up more than one.

 

[jwtseng]

This was the only one that looked like *that*. $6.99 a pound in Cali

K...this half was rubbed with Oakridge Santa Maria, smoked to 120, and then grilled for 2 minutes on each side. Rested for 10 minutes and sliced.

Smoked & Grilled:

Sliced up and ready to eat:

Plated up with M&C and some rabbit food:

The marbling tasted very rich and filling:

Wasn't good at all...

I agree, does not look good one bit.

Every now and then you will find a prize tri-tip like that. When I see them I grab them because there is nothing better. All of the ones that I have found like yours were also choice grade and seemed to be on the small to med size but sooooo good. :clap2:

Beautiful all around! That looks just about wagyu-ish. :shock:

 

[Jason TQ]

Dang that is some nice marbleing

 

[SmokinM]

Amazingly done...would loved to have tried it.

 

[Lexicon Devil]

That looks awesome, I love tri tip but that one is just...wow

Edit: excellent job on the cook too.

 

[FireChief]

I think I cried a little bit when I saw the finished product. Wow. Sniff....

 

[sliding_billy]

Nice find. Looks like wagyu.

 

[COS]

I think you planted a subliminal message into my head. I just ordered a wagyu tri-tip along with a brisket point.

 

[HossIsBoss]

Man that looks delicious.

 

[Decoy205]

Great hunk of meat right there!
