As the title says, got my first smoke done and first tri tip, super satisfied with the result. Started out on the easy side to get a hang of how to control temp at first and set up a snake. Made a baby snake, added a chunk of hickory, and let it get up to 275ish. Had a little issue keeping the temp below 300. I’m thinking I made the snake too large using B&B briquettes, went 2×1. Any advice would be awesome!
Regardless, stoked to get more into it and try out more. Just salt, pepper, garlic. Took about an hour-ish to get it to 115, got it heated after for a nice sear. Didn’t trim the cap nearly as much as a should’ve, but still happy with it. New 22” kettle was worth every penny.

Amazing first smoke results 👍
Nice cook and a great bottle. Have a couple of those in my bar
Came for the beef, stayed for the bottle. Great taste.
smoke and sear tri tip is quickly becoming my favorite cut of beef to serve
I’m more interested in the MM
Yum
Nicely done!
