You're also commenting on the corner of the tip that cooks much faster and is far more done than the thick middle which is not as well done.
As for meat temp, you should employ the DH method for pleasing everybody: I pull the meat at Medium Rare to Medium. If it's not done enough for you, let me know and I'll gladly throw your portion in a skillet or back on the grill and cook any remaining flavor out of it. But not before I get my serving(s) at the right temp.Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss

Originally posted by Donuthole View PostOh geez. I know what 5 degrees means. I also know the tri-tip you posted is at least 10 degrees past enjoyable, and probably closer to 15. It's ok, not everything I cook turns out perfect, either. But you posted it in direct response/comparison to GM (whose tri looks preferable, at least to me). The comparison opened the door for the criticism.

My only question for GM was whether he cut the tip correctly. Looks like he may have cut it with the grain, not against.Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

We're doing a tri tip on our Egg tomorrow and so I came back to this thread to bone up. JL mentioned a video in this thread on carving tri tip but I didn't didn't find it and found this one on YouTube. I helped me, maybe it'll help others here.
