One of my SIL's is visiting from Mexico City so we decided a trip to Big Bear Ca was in order. Weather was perfect and other that getting a late start the weekend was perfect!! We should have stayed a couple of more days though, we didn't get a lot done that we wanted to. Since we got in late Friday we just went and got something for dinner si I didn't fire up the grill. My Wife and SIL wanted to go on a tour of the lake and the only time they had open was 6:00 PM. Since I went on the tour the last time we were up there I stayed and fired up the grill while they went on the tour. My wifwe took my camera so pics were taken using my cell.

I thought I had some Tatonka Dust in the RV but didn't but I did have some Webers Gourmet Burger seasoning so figured what the heck, I'll give it a shot. Added a chunk of cherry and peach for smoke and tossed on a few corn on the cobb as well.


When the TT hit 100 degrees internal I removed the wood chunks and added some California blend veggies. Didn't want the veggies over smoked. When the TT hit 125 internal I took it off and let it rest ten minutes before slicing.


Tri tip sliced using a dull knife and in bad lighting. Looks like it was over cooked but it was perfect. Not the most tender tri tips I have cooked but the flavor was there. Weber's Gourmet burger works pretty good on tri tip too!!


My plate with all of the above and some pasta salad I made earlier in the day.
 
Looks and sounds awesome. I only have my old cell phone camera for photos too. I can never get a decent picture of a rare steak. Looks totally different in the photo than it does in front of me. Oh well, glad u had a nice vacation with your family.

Looks fantastic John. I love it when someone "makes do" with whatever they have on hand. A sign of a good cook.
