There's a first time for everything....tri tip

[Rick Body]

Well I had never heard of "tri tip" before until I joined this forum. Even then I had never seen it in the stores I shop. Today I went to Whole Foods and they had some roasts. It was 8.99 lb. I don't know if that is a good price but I didn't care, I wanted one

So got home and marinated it in some Dale's for a while


then seasoned it up with some McCormick's Worcestershire pub burger and a few other seasonings



Then I fired up the performer and put the sear grate in. While it was getting hot, I cut up some peppers and onions and sliced a potato for the cheesy potato thingy everyone makes

Cooked it to 130 with a piece of hickory for smoke and threw it on the sear grate



Here it is plated. This would have been your plate but I got ahead of myself and took a bite of bread


This meat was extremely tender and tasty. I have been doing London broils the same way, but they don't compare to this. Thanks for turning me on to something new

.... and for dessert, a chocolate covered cannoli from WF



Hope you enjoyed

Thanks everyone. I think I am going to try to find one today to cook at work. Don't mind eating something 2 days in a row when they are that good.
