So here’s another tri-tip definitely was a discount choice cut from my local bargain supermarket as I am a poor single earner for a family of three🤣. 18 dollars for 3.5 lbs ain’t bad!
Anyway
Dry brine, blackened dry rub, Reverse seared at 250(usually I do 225) with cast iron.
Very happy with the outcome it was like butter. The last time I got a tri tip from the grocery store I didn’t trim any fat off the bottom as it was pre trimmed. I did it this time and was much happier with the outcome. I even fucked up cause my kid was distracting me with why questions and put it in the oven fat side down 🤦‍♂️. Flipped it before the end. The very very center was a little less done than I’d like while the rest was perfect. I think it’s the fact I cranked to 250 because I was short on time. Would love to have two meat thermometers but I work with what I got.

    Bit rare for me on tri tip, but that’s completely subjective.

    It’s not often I see a perfect rare. Well done!

    I’m sure this is probably a great rare… but being that I’m a medium to medium-rare person – this looks raw to me.

    Too rare for me but still looks scrumptious

    This looks great for rare. I like a bit more rare-medium to medium but this looks great. It will be a perfect medium if I took some with me for lunch. Great job!

    Well, you’re definitely not a cook. You’re more of a “sear.”

    But on the red for me but that is a nice crust.

    Shameful. I’m gonna need to confiscate this from you and dispose of it myself. 👀

    Hey OP, there’s a tail on your meat and I’m pretty sure I can still hear it mooing.
