First time trying American Wagyu and first time grilling a tri tip. Based on advice I saw here, I took it to 140 with indirect heat (about 225 for 2ish hours) and then seared it with high heat for about 2.5 minutes per side. Served with chimichurri and garlic rosemary baby potatoes. I’ll certainly be trying this again!

First pic with the grain scared me, then I saw the beauty of the 2nd pic. Perfectly cooked and sliced! Nice one
I think the chimi churri was a good idea! Very hard for to keep that juicy.. yours looks good 😊
Looks great!
Beautiful char! Looks like you were going for medium internal?
More importantly…what did YOU think?
Tasty Looking Tri Tip!🤙🔥
Fine looking, maybe a little bit to medium. 😊👍
Excellence
Just a tad over my taste. Tri tip is perfect for medium rare or less in the dead center, and everyone should be happy from some cut.
Str8 up slam bam-able.
Looks great
Would
looks good. how much was that meat?$$
Great looking crust!
Looks a little overcooked. Sliced well
Tri tip has become a staple cut. We call it our mini prime rib because of how incredible they are on the smoker then finished on the cast iron.
They are wonderful sous vide
Looks really good
I prefer mine a little less cooked (rare/Medium—rare)
I’m just really proud that that you cut it perfectly
I’ve made the the mistake of not getting across the grain and damn near dislocated a jaw
Next time
Try some high end ciabatta rolls toasted with butter for steak sandwiches—— they’re awesome.
Tri tip wagyu is an excellent choice.
Looks like you cut with the grain.
Looks yummy
First crack at it looks great!
Nice…. Personal preference is more heat and less time. I’m more of a black n blue guy.
Cut across the grain. Cooked a bit too much for my liking.
Feed me. Me hungry
You cut it wrong but otherwise still looks pretty decent.
You’ve taken your first step into a larger world.
That’s a beautiful tritip. You split the roast during carving properly then sliced across the grain for your portions. Medium is perfect for tritip in my opinion. Bravo, sir!
That is pretty much perfect!
Perfect!
