Tri Tip, it’s what’s for dinner.

Both tri tip and picanha are about the 'steakiest' flavor there is.

The bonus part, make sure you have some crescent rolls or another bread of choice available.

The residual juices (as jus) make things even better, and that applies to either cut of meat.

It takes some experimenting and depends on what you’re cooking on, but the best way I’ve found is to smoke it for a couple hours low and slow. After that, crank the heat up and sear it.

There’s the better part of two cuts pictured above. They were smoked on a pellet grill and then seared inside using a cast iron skillet. It turned out amazing.

This^ , a quick sear to 130 internal is like chewing a tire even with a Prime cut, I smoke at 180 for about 2 ish hours then sear and its one of my favorites.

I cooked mine over coals today, temp read 500 degrees, pulled them at 125 internal temp and let rst for 10 - 15 min, was awesome.

We never see that cut in East Texas. Our stores are not as good as HEBs evidently. You should be properly ashamed to post that Frank !

I do believe I could eat that!

Looks great. I usually cook one a week on my Santa Maria style
pit. Living in Central Cal, it’s a lot easier to find tri-tip than briskets 🤣

Finding them at HEB is kind of hit or miss around here, that's why I usually just drive to a meat market about 20 minutes away. They always have either those or picahna out so I know it won't be a wasted trip.

Im gonna have to try smoking one! We eat them a couple times a month.
Season, Sear in a cast iron, then into 400f oven until 125F. Let it rest while putting some white wine and cream in the skillet to whip up a white wine sauce!

grew up on the west coast and tri-tip was what we ate because we were poor, now at $9/lb for choice it's cheaper to get ribeye!

Watch for sales and load up. HEB had choice for 3.99 about a month ago.
