I had planned to cook up a tri tip while we were camping this weekend, but ended up opting for some simpler meals. So, first night back home....had to cook that bad boy up. This was a prime TT from CostCo that I had in the freezer for a bit, and while it thawed out, I had it bathing in a marinade of EVOO, balsamic, garlic, oregano, thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper.) I also grabbed some brussels sprouts from the store to side it up. I set up the 26" for a 2-zone fire, got my sprouts washed, trimmed and split in half, then seasoned with EVOO, paprika, garlic powder, cumin, salt and pepper. Tri tip went on, after a bit the sprouts went into the CI skillet (that had been heating on the grill), and I rotated/flipped every 10 minutes. Sprouts were done early, so I pulled and covered them. Eventually, the TT hit 122-125F, so I seared over coals for 2 minutes per side. Crisped up/reheated the brussels under the broiler will the TT rested for a few, then we ate. Everything turned out great. The sprouts were a bit overdone/mushy, but crisping them up helped that a bit. The TT was like butter! Cow flavored butter....
