Def don’t dry brine, as that marinade likely includes more salt than it needs.
There have been reports of this “brisket-style” tri-tip that’s probe tender, but it sounds like myth to me. I’ve cooked countless tri-tip here in CA, and it’s a tough cut if cooked above 135°F.
Reverse sear for the win with tri-tip.
Above all, be sure to slice it against the grain. If you don’t you’ll think you’re chewing a piece of rubber.
+1. Agree on this. I like it med rare to Rare and like Santa said cut across the grain. The grain can go in a couple of different directions. I usually cut the roast in half to make it easier to carve.
