On day 26, we made tri-tip steak smoked with our Grapevine & Applewood Blend. We used the Grapevine & Applewood blend for smokers but there's also a Grapevine & Applewood blend for grills.)
Before smoking, we marinated the tri-tip in barbecue sauce, put it in a ziploc bag, and then put it in the fridge for a few days. Here it is, just as we were starting the smoking process:
Chef's Tip: Remember, cook this low and slow is the way to go. Take it to a medium rare. Then let it sit uncovered for about 10-15 minutes.
This is a big tri-tip, so not only did we enjoy it tonight, be we'll get many more delicious meals out of it. (For example: we had tri-tip appetizers on Day 28 and Smoked Beef Stroganoff on Day 31.)
