Reverse Sear Tri Tip

I belong to a group that is feeding some homeless men tonight and I was charged with providing lunch meat since we also prepare sandwiches for them for the next day. Rather than just buying something, I thought it might be nice to cook a couple of tri tips, chill them overnight in the fridge and slice them today.

The reverse sear was in the oven set to 250F and they took almost 2 hours before hitting 129/130 when I pulled them off. I filled a chimney of KB red and created a pretty hot zone on one side of the OTP. Seared each roast for about 2 minutes per side and let them rest where they came up to about 138F; perfect medium rare. Thought I'd share a few pics.

Bought these from Costco; excellent choice grade

Thanks for looking!!
 
God bless you for helping the homeless. They will love the sandwiches. Nice job.
 
Awesome looking Tri tips Pete! And I agree with everyone else you are a good man
for helping feed the homeless!
 
Great job Pete. I really like the marbling on the Tri Tip. What also caught my eye was the great knife work.
 
Yes well done, but I have to be the first one to say: In the OVEN? No smoke? What is this world coming to?...Really though good job. I haven't done a tri tip yet, lookin forward to it.
Must of been a good day to be homeless.
