bought a 3 lb tri tip at the butcher shop and got home and seasoned it by brushing with a little olive oil, and the using Trader Joes Garlic Sea Salt, and Everyday Seasoning, both which come with built in grinders. While it came to room temp, I fired up two baskets of charcoal and prepped some asparagus by tossing in olive oil, sprinkling generously with Parmesan, and grinding some of the garlic sea salt onto it. Went out and spread the two baskets apart, added some soaked cherry chips, and cooked the TT indirect in the middle, about 25 minutes per side. With about 10 minutes left on the second side, I threw the asparagus on over one of the baskets for some direct heat. Finished the TT off by searin over the other basket.
The meal was delicious, but the meat was just a little more done than I would have liked! In the pics, it looks less done, but in reality I'd say it was a solid medium in done ness.
