Here I am..LOL
You can trim almost all of the outer fat off a tri-tip. You must have got about 5 to 8 tri-trips right?
How you plan on cooking em'?
It is still in the cryo pack. I about craped at the weight, but at 2 bones a pound i figured what the hell.
If it is 6-7 no prob but it is fricking huge.
I was going to smoke it tell 130ish then toss it on the grill tell 145ish.
Sounds like a plan!
You can leave a thin layer of fat so when you sear them you get the flavor of the dripping rendered fats.
I have cooked a couple like a brisket and they come out fantastic!
You smoke it at 260F until you reach 130F IT and then foil and continue until you reach a IT of 200F. Let it rest and then carve across the grain. It is fantastic ;)
In about 4 hours you will have this...
