The best way to cook TRI TIP!! Low and slow "Brisket Jr."

Here at Grillslingers we like to call this "Brisket Jr." This is BY FAR our favorite way to cook Tri Tip. Most people cook this like a steak but we love cooking this low and slow like a brisket. This is great to do on any kind of smoker from a pellet smoker to an offset smoker. We hope you have a chance to try this Tri Tip recipe out!

As soon as I heard pellet smoker I knew you didn’t know anything about BBQ

[@Grillslingers]

Accurate

As soon as I saw your comment.... everyone knows.

[@Grillslingers]

Also accurate

Love KZbin so much. Killer pinned comment lol

Always appreciate a humble teacher. Turned out great!

Love the backdrop fellas and already learning so much. Sweet first video, liked and subscribed🤘🏼

[@Grillslingers]

Welcome aboard! Thank you so much!

[@NighthawkHVAC]

Eric congratulations on your first episode. Welcome to KZbin. Great video! Keep it up!

[@Grillslingers]

Thank you! Will do!

[@sean-gf6kg]

Great video. Found this while waiting on my stall.

[@mamabear9585]

Awesome, thanks! Trying this tomorrow ♡

[@Grillslingers]

Hope it turned out great! 👍

[@villarreal619]

You are probably the only person on KZbin that doesn't eat their meat while it's still alive and spilling blood all over the place. Thank you.

[@Grillslingers]

Well there goes my plan for a ribeye cook. Glad you enjoyed this one!

[@joshuaglen2118]

Hahaha! All the blood is drained during slaughter and butcher. It's called protein juice. Hahaha! Blood!

[@JourneyRcks5]

That's crazy people are eating meat on here thats still alive?!? And blood spilling?? That's insane, I'm trying to look for some. I guess the cow is just standing there alive, and they're cutting it up and just straight eating it? Wild.

[@bostongeorge9433]

Blood 😂😂you must be new 🤦🏿‍♂️

[@HoseDragger17]

You mean myoglobin??? If you vacuum seal your tri tip or other cuts of meat before freezing you will have a bunch of that left in the bag when you thaw it out. Add some water to it and pour it on your plants. It’s loaded with all sorts of nutrients they need. And if they need it, we do too. Don’t cook the meat til it’s as dry as a popcorn fart.

[@Steffsworld]

Daaamn that looks good And this is such a quality first video!! That editing, style, scene, FOOD 👌 Super excited to see more!

[@Grillslingers]

Thanks so much!!

[@TheGor54]

I remember back in the day when good size tri tip cost $8-$10. Nobody really wanted it. I was all over it like ants on candy!

[@danielgutierrez7979]

There’s nothing better than watching Eric play with some meat in the morning

[@thricexalliance]

Agreed 1000%

[@SheepdogsHeart]

Nice production, nice cooking area. TriTip looked a bit dry, but hey, who hasnt done that. I prefer to wrap, keep that moisture contained. Over all, really great job and I'll be looking for more high quality productions from you in the future.

[@JACOTAPOUTTC]

Just started with the smoker and made this for my family today. Came out unbelievable. You explain the process really well. Thanks for the tips!

[@Grillslingers]

Thank you so much! Glad it worked out for you, let us know if you try anything else!

[@debbiegutierrez1424]

I am learning even though i don’t have a smoker i have a weber Barbecue.. Thanks for the tips

[@Grillslingers]

We'll have some things on the way that cover more than just smoking. Don't you worry!

[@johnrodriguez1585]

Really cool

[@bradcampbell624]

I've only cooked TTip to med rare and loved it. This looks really really good. Going to use this method this weekend and update on the results. p.s. Those who hate on pellet grills are just jealous that they can't afford a good one. I don't have one but wish I did. But I don't hate

[@Grillslingers]

Thanks Brad! Good luck, keep us posted!

[@JServo]

Some say he's still cooking it to this day..

[@TheFoodExperience]

I recently purchased the Pit Boss Lexington 500 Onyx and plan on doing tri-tip next weekend. I usually cook it medium rare however I want to give it a try this way just to see how it comes out. Thanks for the awesome video and just subbed!

[@Grillslingers]

Thanks duder! Happy smoking!

[@TheFoodExperience]

​@@GrillslingersHey Eric or is it Erik? Lol or what you're going to come back with a totally different spelling. Lol I didn't catch it the first time but it sounds like you said you're in California. That's also where I'm located, in the Marina del Rey area. Well I did the tri-tip like a brisket over the past weekend and it was super tender. A little bit on the end got dried out but all in all for the first time trying it it was pretty awesome. Definitely will try it again and keep an eye on when it starts to get probe tender instead of worrying about temperature. Thanks again dude!

[@Smil3y7021]

I went to an Albertsons that has a butcher inside and asked for a Santa Maria style cut Tri Tip. I only know Trip Tip from Santa Maria since that's my hometown but I was told that Texas style is fully trimmed. Interesting

[@klydemansaku3775]

After watching 234544 videos on how to smoke a Tritip I finally found one that got the same cut as me. 3.2lb with a fat cap a foot thick. Great video but too well done for me. Look forward to more vids!

[@SNIiIPER316]

And during that period of time, while watching all this videos , your tri-tip went dry-aged naturally 😆

[@cscheatum]

Smoked tri tip first time couple weeks ago, turned out okay but I realized after watching this it could have been way better if I had trimmed all the fat off like you did. Great info! Looking forward to smoking another one your way tomorrow.

[@Grillslingers]

Good luck cam!

[@mAKtre47]

Just leave the fat, scor it like diamond shape, throw it on the offset for smoke, cook to about 132 then throw it over the flame to sear the outside, let rest for a little then enjoy...

[@Grillslingers]

@@mAKtre47 also a solid method!

[@daveblackston4835]

200f that sounds a bit over cooked but it looks great I thought that the internal temperatures were 125 rare 140 med rare 150 medium 160 medium well 170 well done I'm just trying to figure it out don't want to over cooked the tri-tip

[@Grillslingers]

Totally understand, we're treating this like a brisket. The texture completely changed once it was over 200. Give it a shot!

[@bostongeorge9433]

Exactly

[@mikegrayjr6527]

Best way to cook em fixing to make one tomo

[@Dogday661]

I always shoot for 158-160 internal

Hello, I’d like to apply to be a taste tester. Awesome video!

[@Grillslingers]

sold! Thanks for the love!!!!

[@bmaschal]

I know I'm a little late to the party but i was wondering if this method would be good at 225 as i want to do ribs at the same time.

[@Grillslingers]

Never too late for a good question! I'd probably recommend spritzing along with wrapping if you wanna run at 225

[@rileybacon47]

Just curious what is is about lower temps that require wrapping and spritzing? Thanks

[@dbz24]

I see you have a pit boss. Do you have any issues with temperature using the pit boss? I know some people have complaints about it with regards to how evenly it heats.

[@Grillslingers]

It definitely has it's hot spots, that's something that happens on any grill, it's just a matter of finding out what works best on yours!

[@dbz24]

@@Grillslingers thanks for the response! I don’t have a smoker or grill. But thinking on buying one. I’m weighing between this and the Traeger.

[@frankdukes5674]

I'm with you totally except for the glove thing... I'm cooking for me, and my family. I don't need to wear a glove

[@okiefoodieking]

You never did say what temp u put your smoker to? What temp is your smoker when you cook the the tri-tip

[@Grillslingers]

250 is the recommended temp

[@keithneal8641]

Whats your slicing knife? I'm looking for 1

[@Grillslingers]

That's a dalstrong. There's plenty of good carving knives out there!

[@yobossboss9658]

What type of wood??

This cook was oak/hickory

Tri tip also weighs alot less than a brisket

Why even lie about Brisket LOL chepest brisket I’ve ever found was 110 bucks for a full (8lb) brisket. So for a reallllyy nice brisket expect around 3 to 400 bucks

Don't know where you're buying brisket, but I pick up brisket at Sam's club for 80 to $140

[@obxburg]

Ok I’m 0.38 seconds in and I’m already wondering why on Gods green earth you only have 828 followers cuz that’s gotta be the BEST 0.38 seconds of any video I’ve ever seen and God knows I’ve watched at least a 1,000 if not 1,001 😂👀🙌🏼… I’ll continue because well that’s just how I roll 👀🌮🍻🫵🏼
