I have cooked only one Tri tip as they are kind of hard to find in this area but really liked the one I cooked and want to cook another. I applied a steak seasoning about an hour before I put it on the smoker and cooked it at 275 degrees for about 1 hour 30 minutes and the internal was close to 140. I let it rest for about 15 minutes then sliced it. I thought it was great, family thought it was great but my wife does not like her beef that rare and only took a bite from the edge. I have seen where some cook it until the internal reaches 170 and clear up to 190 degrees.
Fellow smokers here is the question of the day. Is there a right way or wrong way to cook the tri tip? Does it get tough and dry cooking it the low and slow method for 4 or 5 hours?
