Decided to cut the tritip in half since my family typically can’t finish one. Dry brined 4 hours with salt. Seasoned right before cooking with the holy gospel by meat church. Smoked on the Traeger at 225 until 125 internal. Seared on cast iron to 130 internal. Rested for 10 minutes (not long enough) final temp was 135.

Only thing I’d change personally is rest another 5-10 minutes. But we were hungry so we made an executive decision. Very happy with the results!

    Not a fan of everyone using that phrase to act like Matt though, kind of cringy
