Midwestern Tri-Tip
After finding a Tri-Tip at a Sams club a couple months back and finding out in person how good they are. I have been searching for more. Today at a Sams club in Evansville, Indiana I found what they called Tri-Tip steaks. Sliced about 1/2” thick with the grain. I asked a butcher there if they had whole Tri-Tip? He replied that they were sealed in cryo bag and could sell me a bag if I wanted that much. He returned with a bag of choice Tri-Tip weighing almost 18 lbs. Priced at $4.88 / lb. I purchased that for several wonderful beef meals this summer. The bigger package saved about $1.00 per lb. I took them home, and found 6 Tri-Tip in the package. Trimmed some silver skin off and salted with kosher to dry brine for a day. Then to seal individually in vacuum bags for freezer storage. Just had to ask the guy behind the counter. He claims they always have them in stock. There was also a case of Prime grade beef and a small selection of Wagu steaks at about $35.00 /lb

If you don't have a Santa Maria grill, what's the best way to do these? Quick and hot, low'n'slow, sous vide and sear, something else?

tRidiot .... as someone else said, cook Tri-Tip reverse sear method ..... you really want to go slow when cooking indirect. Personally, I keep the indirect side about 250 at the most. Bring the Tri-Tip up to 120-125 internal. Then sear over direct, very high heat. I give it about 3 minutes per side, with a turn in the middle so I get cross hatched grill marks. I like it coming off the grill at about 135 internal temp.
I cook on charcoal, but I use red oak for smoke.

Oakgrovebacon that’s a heckuva deal man. Choice Tri-Tip is awesome. I’ve cooked Prime a few times, but didn’t feel that it made any significant difference, so I went back to Choice.
