Title: Tri Tip Fun aka I have an Idea .......... Hold my Beer!
Post by: classicrockgriller on September 27, 2011, 06:42:40 PM
After the visit to the meat market in Paducah, Hal, Larry, Pat and I

were sitting there discussing ways of cooking Tri-Tips and this kinda

became a group thought.

Un-Trimmed Tri-Tip semi frozen.

Curt, I turned the left overs into a mid morning breakfast.

Scrambled eggs with green onion tops and a dash of milk.

Cheese, couple grinds of pepper and some Starnes on a

butter warm tortillas. Mug of coffee. Community with chicory.

Cutting the Tri Tip against the grain, the Tri Tip fajita's just

bit apart instead of tearing. The Tri Tip was 2lbs 14oz and I

cooked up a lb. They were grilled on the SRG. Gonna cook

up the rest this weekend with a different fajita marinade and

do them on the Bubba Keg.

Sonny - good looking Gringo Grub there!  Had almost the same thing Wed. night.  Except used thin sliced brisket and put some fresh roasted Hatch Chilis on top.  boy oh boy!  Unfortunately there is a BBQ joint 3 or 4 blocks from the office used to make some killer brisket tacos, but they recently changed to chopped brisket and simplified the recipe and they aren't near as good.  However, they started putting chopped brisket on their nachos and changed to cheese to a white cheese sauce.  Now that was a good change!

OBTW... Here in Huntsvile/Toney they look at you real funny when you ask for a tri-tip  :o

Ice, I used Sweetwater Spice Co Fajita marinade. It was OK, but will try something different next time.
