Sous Vide + Charcoal Charred Tri TIp

[nmautone]

Tri Tip has always been one of my favorite cuts and provides unbelievably delicious and versatile leftovers. (LOVE my leftovers!) Think I finally perfected it! This one was very lightly brushed with bacon fat, alder smoked salt, pepper, garlic powder and cumin, cooked Sous Vide at 131 for 7 hours, then charred on my Weber Summit Charcoal Grill. I was absolutely in heaven sopping up the juices with some homemade crusty sourdough.

Sous vide is the only way I'll do tri-tip. Awesome cook right there!!

OP did 131/7. Do you do something similar?

[Jerod Broussard]

jumbo7676 I'm pretty sure I was in the 3-4 hour range at 131.5. Depending if it was an individual steak or the whole thang.

Wait. You have leftovers?
How is that possible with such an outstanding piece of meat like that.

Great cook.

I actually cooked two, simply because I always want leftovers! Great for steak and eggs and tacos, of course, but wow does it make great quick stir fry with buckwheat noodles and caramelized onions and carrots.

I've done tri-tip about everyway imaginable from grilling open flame to smoking low and slow and must admit your method is probably my favorite as well. I also do large cuts of Picanha the same way. It's difficult to get the edge to edge pink, medium rare finish otherwise. Well done sir !!!

OP did 131/7. Do you do similar time and temp?

[Troutman]

Depends upon the size of the roast but no I generally do about 3-4 hours. I want a softer finish to the meat.
