That's got to be one of the best looking tri-tips I've ever seen. It looks more like it should've been graded as prime with that much fat marbling.

And you cooked it to perfection to boot!

Wow... brilliant. Tri-tip will be the perfect easy first cook once I get set up.

I always tell people that Costco Choice punches above its weight and their prime is usually pretty lousy (for prime). I make sure to compare them each purchase to see if its worth the price difference. That's a great cut and cooked beautifully.
