The Prep
************************************************************
-Trim all the hard fat and silver skin off the top of the tri-trip. It is okay to leave the fat cap on to help protect the meat during the cooking process.
-Use a binder (we used worcestershire sauce) and rub an light even coat all over the tri-tip. This isn't for flavor, it's just to help the rub adhere to the meat.
-Season your tri-tip with the rub of your choice. We used SuckleBuster SPG and Hoochie Mama, it's a savor combination with just the right amount of spice. I'll link them, and my discount code down below so you can save 10% on your order!
************************************************************
The Cook
************************************************************
-The cook is pretty simple. Fire your cooker up and keep it steady at 250º for the entirety of the cook.
-Let your tri-tip smoke until you have a nice bark or crust, and the internal temperature is around 155-160º.
-At this point you can wrap your tri-tip in aluminum foil with the liquid of your choice, we used beef base.
-Get the tri-tip back onto the smoker, and continue cooking until probe tender (ours was done at 203-205º
-Once it's tender, open up the tin foil, and let the tri-tip steam off, this will allow the bark to reset itself.
-After 15 minutes, wrap it back up in tin foil, and let it rest for 1 hour.
-Slice against the grain, and enjoy!

Man I watch your channel every time I turn my pitboss on and what I love most about your channel, after watching this video, you are completely honest about everything you do. Even if it isn’t your cup of tea. You’re amazing man. Keep going.

[SaltyTales]

love your honesty brother, nothing beats a mid-rare tri-tip man! 😀😀😀 Great video!

[evanholman]

You're right, hard to beat a medium rare tri tip over charcol

[alexmorales]

[TNGrillinSmokin]

Great video man! Looks so good!! Made me hungry! I’m a huge suckle busters fan. I find it hard to beat! I subbed your channel!

[jonpee]

I always cook my tri tips like this! It’s absolutely delicious

[NeilSarap]

Great video, very thorough explanation! I personally love this method 👊👊

[Viewerinview]

Thanks for the video. I’ll try it. It looks good and I like my tri tip more medium anyway.

[atschuler]

I did not know at first that you were overcooking it on purpose. LOL Great experiment! LOVE THE VIDEO and thank you!

[PicklesBBQandCooking]

I’ve done tri tip so many ways but I do like the medium rare tri tip, it’s always good! Nice one darrin and I’m sure the sucklebusters was good, only had a few of theirs but all good!

[BehindtheGarageBBQ]

Great cook Darrin! Ya got some quick knife skills..lol...never smoked one myself, but I'd put that down! Looked delicious..Just did a tri-tip on the El Charro rotisserie, made some philly cheese steaks, great tutorial, thanks for sharing brother, have a great one, stay safe!👍

[jerryhagel]

Tried your recipe today with our rubs. Came out good I like tri tip, and like it rare. However my wife is a well done, cook the life out of it. So this recipe worked well no pink and very tasty.

[GRodGrills]

That looked real good! I’m team medium-rare too, just love the beefy flavour of tri-tip but definitely gonna have to try this at least once.

[jonathanreyes]

When u put the tri in foil did you raise the heat

[ItsRyanTurley]

Nice brother! I’ve been meaning to try the brisket style tri-tip... but I agree with you, I prefer a thinly sliced, med-rare tri-tip, reverse seared w/ Chimichurri. 👊🏼🔥💨

[bigfranksworld]

My wife makes great tri tip on the propane grill, and it's a good as I have ever had.. I'm from the Santa Maria area, and have ate LOTS of tri tip. I was going to try this, but now don't think I'm going to. What do you think of smoking for an hour or hour and a half to get some smoke into it, then dropping it on the propane grill to get it finished? Seems like it would be a great tasting roast?

[MadHorseBBQ]

Decent! I’ve always wanted to try it but I’m a huge fan of a med rare to med TRI Tip myself. I’ll stick to chuck roast if I want to use a roast and cook like a brisket. Great video m8! 🍻🍻

Hey Darren what is your real thoughts on the lockhart grill ?
