Well everyone has been doing a Tri Tip here lately so I thought.....Hmmmmmmmmmmm
My turn!!!!!

Started with a beef Tri Tip...applied a liberal amount of rub.
Next, cover with wrap and frig for a minimum of 6 hours... I like to do a overnight rest.

Using my smoke adapter as a firebox...added Kingsford charcoal...
Once hot I added Hickory wood chips.
I'll also will add one Hickory Bradley Smoker Bisquettes every 45 minutes for flavor.

I add this piece of foil -- thought here was to try and make sure the smoke/heat is not hitting the back wall/heating element.

Smoke is now rolling in.

Looks like the foil is working.

Tent for about 10-15 minutes.
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/s720x720/291894_238429502869526_100001074346303_632605_2146374113_n.jpg)
Next I let the TTT rest for about another 5 minutes uncovered before...

Slicing.
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/s720x720/311509_238429609536182_100001074346303_632608_375149114_n.jpg)
Slicing across the grain - about 1/4" slices.
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/s720x720/309614_238429649536178_100001074346303_632609_279243916_n.jpg)
I see a nice little smoke ring.

They were 4.69 lb but if I remember correctly if you purchased a case it was 4.34lb.
Thanks Mark.

Thanks Mark.
What about Larry's butcher in Paducah?
I'm going to get a bunch from him. ;D
RD is somewhat near MrsSTC's favorite mall in STL, so it is a quick trip to stop in. I didn't see tri-tips the last time I was in there.
