    Best sandwich I've had in a long time. One slice of bread with a smoked garlic and herb butter compound that I made and the other with a thin layer of horseradish. Leftover tri-tip in between. Heaven.

      Used Spade L ranch rub and smoked with Oak to 135 and then reverse seared. Came out medium, which is what my family wants. Very good, but the Spade L was lacking. In fact, I think I’ve gotten to the point that anything other than salt, pepper, and garlic powder (maybe onion powder as well) is just inferior when it comes to beef. I’ve gone totally salt/pepper on brisket and salt/pepper/garlic/onion on steak and burgers. Time to do it for all beef.

        Looks medium well to me; no amount of Spade L or Salt/Pepper/Garlic can help that.

          I've never really read this thread, because stores around here don't carry it, but I visited a butcher shop today and they had some, so looks like I will try it out tomorrow.

            Good luck. It's delicious.

                  First try at tri tip over the weekend. Pretty pretty good - maybe a touch more done than I initially wanted. There's only two of us at home now, but these suckers come in two packs at Costco - so what's a guy supposed to do? Smoked them both. Sliced one for dinner Sunday. Threw the other in a bag and vacuum sealed it - maybe not ideal, but I'm going to warm it sous vide style and slice it Sunday to throw in with the Super Bowl eats.

                        I didn't realize this thread existed before I posted my tri tip thoughts. Apologies.

Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

                            I smoked tri tip for Easter dinner, but I tried something new that I've been seeing on YouTube a lot. I smoke it brisket style. Smoked it to 160° and then wrapped it in butcher paper and took it off at about 202° and then let it rest for a while. It came out pull-apart tender and was delicious. Probably the best tri tip I've ever smoked (I still love sous vide and then sear the hell out of it). One caveat is that if you cook it brisket style, you probably only want to do it with prime. You need the fat.
