    I’m confused. I see some meat cooked well done, like a brisket, and some meat cooked medium ish. I’ve never made tri tip, but it looks delicious either way.

    Not sure why my comment did not post, ill try again :).

    My local Costco recently started stocking tri-tip so I gave it a go. It has since become my go cut cut of beef for small gatherings.

    I prefer reverse sear method, obviously it has more of a steaky vibe. However.. last weekend we tried one as a brisket (trisket) and it was damn near brisket material and took a fraction of the time. Both methods were dry brined.

    The leftovers make epic sandwiches.. little chimichurri and horse radish mayo.. yessir.

    Cheers to tri-tips!

    I used to cook it a couple times a month. With rising beef prices, I’m pretty much out of the tri-tip game unless for special occasions.

    They all look awesome! Just keep an eye on the grain pic #9 looks like you might’ve cut it with the grain when the grain switches, but I could be wrong.

    Tri Tip is criminally under rated on the east coast. Never even heard of it until I moved out west and it quickly became a staple in my home lol. Makes great steaks and comes out great low and slow like a brisket

    With the Brisket style one you did, what temps did you use? Did you spritz’s it? Cover it? Mine had an amazing smoke ring but was def dry. Had a good rest as well.
