Title: First go at whole Tri-tip
Post by: kendoll on August 25, 2013, 02:07:05 AM

So I tried smoking my first whole tri-tip (quite small at 700g). Coated it in Tatonka Dust and used the snake method to smoke it at 225F with hickory and Black Wattle wood. Cooked until 140F IT.

Sliced - forgot to mark the bloody grain! ::)

Also made garlic butter for garlic bread on the OTS and my wife made garlic roast potatoes in the oven.

Looks great Ken. If I cut and the grain is wrong I switch right then and there. The only drawback to cutting with grain is tenderness. The flavor is unchanged. I'd hit that.......HARD!
