How’d I do? Infrequent and middle of the road confidence griller
Also, my wife likes it well done (terrible I know), so I have to consider that when grilling meat. Santa Maria style tri-tip from Costco. Very salty on the crust but I still enjoyed it with rice and asparagus.

You did good. Just give your wife the ends.

If your wife likes it well done then I think you probably did it perfect. The tip end is gonna be more well than this. Others to grill a roast because by the time the heat penetrates you’ve almost overcooked the outer portion. Good job I’m not a fan of the pre seasoned ones. They’re always so salty.

If you prefer medium rare, it’s OK to cut the tri tip in half. One thick piece and one thinner piece. Cook both pieces on the colder sider of a 2 zone grill with the lid on. When the thick piece gets to 125f internal, move it to the hot side to sear. After searing it, remove and rest. It should be a good medium rare. For the thin piece, when it gets to 140ish, sear it and remove/rest. That should be closer to medium well or well done. Slice all pieces against the grain to get tender slices. Enjoy!

Looks good for a middle ground between you and your wifes’ tastes. I find the slightly overcooked/dry meat goes best the next day with breakfast. I’d slice it real thin and eat it on a breakfast sandwich, or chop it up finely into a skillet with some eggs and serve it over rice.

I generally cut the small tip of the tri-tip off, slice thin and put in sandwich sized freezer bag. We eat tri-tip often so I save these bags for tacos. We like our tri-tip medium-rare. I think maybe you could have let it sit longer to redispurse the juices back into the meat cells. I wait 10 whole minutes. Be sure your knife is Sharp and slice. I also buy untrimmed pieces and trim them myself, leaving a decent fat layer on top.
