It’s my neighbors 50th birthday and she just put her dog or 15 years down last week. That pup was such a good sweet girl and her mom gave her a great life 🙂 Figured her first bday without her pup needs to be special.

So, I smoked her a beautiful tri tip. Had to leave out garlic and onion as she’s allergic though. Still made it delicious though!!! Mustard as a binder, Kosher salt, cracked pepper, smoked paprika, chili powder, cumin, rosemary, and tyme. Then a drizzle of worchester sauce. Let it sit for 30+ min as I cleaned my smoker from the night prior. Tossed in a smoke tube, let it get to 250 and tossed the tri tip on until it hit an internal of 115. Moved it over to my bbq for a reverse sear and pulled it at 121 IT. Then rest for 15 min. Got up to a perfect 132 IT medium rare.

Sometimes, you gotta share the love. And everyone loves bbq!! (I only got 1 pic)

    That looks great and you are a good person!

    This reminded me of a few month ago when I was out of town and my patio umbrella ended up on my roof. My neighbor’s son got it down for me and let me know. The following weekend I smoked a nice pork butt with some sweet apple wood in my offset smoker and gave it to them. I’m thankful for my neighbors and I believe they are thankful for us.

    1 pic is all we need to see we know that thing was incredible. This was very cool of you to do, might have to deliver a couple plates next time I do some pulled pork.
