Who Fired Up Thier Pit Today?

[TheBBQChef]

Who fired up their pit and cooked something delicious today?! This is a Texas-style Tri-Tip that I cooked for breakfasts and lunches throughout the week.

Ran it at 235F until 110 in the center and then pulled the charcoal basket up on the OJ Bronco and seared it until 130 and then pulled it to rest.

Seasoning is Kosher salt, course black pepper, hot smoked paprika, and a touch of garlic powder. Flavored with post oak wood chunks.

Man that is one of the finest Tri tips I’ve seen.

Very nice looking piece of beef. Wish I could find decent priced tri tip around here.
I get prime cuts of strip loin for much less money so no brainer on what I purchase from the store?

I don't blame you one bit! I get my tri-tip from Sam's usually, so it's reasonable. I was floored last week when they had prime brisket at $2.76/lb! I couldn't believe my eyes! Picked up an 18.5 pounder that will go on the pit tomorrow night for Saturday evening dinner.

Forgot to answer your question.
Tuesday was our first day above zero (whoo hoo hit +1°F) in close to two weeks. Wife asked if it was warm enough to just grill burgers. I'm back in regular grilling mode 2-3 x / week.

Your tri tip looks delicious! Haven't had smoker going recently... too many leftovers to eat up first. Finally got above 0 here also, 9 degrees and feels like 1, wife and I chuckled... feels like a nice day!

That's a mighty fine TT. Love the char !
I'm smoking 1" pork chops and plan to finish off with high heat. Hopefully get the same color as your TT !

It was -10F here on Tuesday morning. Yesterday it 15F. My wife and I joked how it was 25 degrees warmer than it was the day before. It was reasonable enough yesterday that I had to get at least one pit fired up and make some BBQ. Going to be in the mid-50s next week too.
