Tri Tips Smoked On The Pit Barrel Cooker

[@PITMASTERX]

Those look tasty Ry

[@CookingWithRy]

Thanks! First time doing Tri Tips on the PBC and it did a fantastic job :)

[@PITMASTERX]

@@CookingWithRy sure did 🤘🤩🤘

[@impalaren65]

I followed your directions, the best tri-tip I’ve ever had!! Excellent video for a beginner like me. I love my Pit Barrel Cooker. Thanks!

[@Fish_760]

Excellent results Ry. Thank you for sharing your talents with us. God bless!

[@milehighed52801]

The PBC is a nice inexpensive cooker that does a phenomenal job with ribs, but those Tri-tips looked great! Thanks for sharing, Ry.

[@SNEEKEE12]

Looks delicious! The Pit Barrell Meat and Game rub is amazing on Tri Tip as well. I tried it last week and it was the best Tri Tip I've ever had! Give it a whirl.

[@fly1327]

Sold! I'm ordering a PBC after watching what it does for pork ribs, chicken halves, and now thanks to you, tri-tips. Here in CA tri-tip is a staple everywhere. But corn, smoked bare until the kernels are softened and browned from smoke, cut off the cobb and mixed with butter, pepper and some salt...is the bomb. And not just IMHO, but everyone I've made it for.

[@CookingWithRy]

That corn sounds great to me! I'll take five :)

[@tomevans5458]

I have several PBC's and routinely cook 35-40 tri tip for school functions. With limited help, I can put together a big meal Tri tip, salad, beans, and garlic bread) for a lot of people quickly and efficiently. Like you, my favorite method is the reverse sear, but this method always comes out great!

[@CookingWithRy]

Yeah it sure turns out great Tri Tip!

[@ronzufelt1428]

Tri tip looked great. Love tri tip. I marinate over night with a 50-50 mix of soy sauce and Stubbs soy, garlic and red pepper flakes. Has a great flavor and juicy. I use my Weber kettle cook wide open in-direct and then sear when it reaches tempt.

[@CookingWithRy]

Sounds good to me :)

[@powerplantop]

Looks fantastic, I am cooking a tri tip on my PBC today.

[@mikewelck4479]

I made the tri tip with coffee and garlic rub on my rec tec. Awesome!!!!!

[@CookingWithRy]

Awesome :)

[@MH-ty7fb]

I have my first tri tip marinating now. I’m not going to lie it’s hard for me to watch your videos, I usually fall asleep if I’m already in “grilling mood”-(aka a few in). Your dulcet tones and music are so relaxing.

[@colinbutler2552]

Great Video.. as always. What I really appreciate is your passion for cooking, and how dedicated you are at turning out videos. Thanks.. Once again Ry !

[@CookingWithRy]

That's kind of you to say :0

[@jgoree8319]

Nice Ry. Thanks for sharing. I have had that cooker in the cart before but didn’t buy it because next for me is a flattop griddle.

[@roberttschaefer]

Great instructional video on tri-tip!

[@Walt1119]

Those look awesome! Will have to try it, thanks for sharing with us!!

[@mic982]

Since we like our trip tip done to Medium-Rare I'm guessing about 275-280F for around 1.25 hours? Luckily, I have a 2- probe unit, 1 for ambient and1 for internal meat. I cook ours to ~135-140F. Gotta see if I can run down some of that Trader Joe's coffee rub to try next. Thanks Ry.

I have cooked my tri tip at 225 to 250 all the way to 186 and it was super tender. I'm going to try and get it a little higher and take it off at 130 next time

Only one word ... "PERFECT" ... 👍👍👍

[@prevost8686]

Thanks for the video. Here on the East Coast tri tip is almost unheard of. I actually saw a couple in my local grocery store for the first time the other day. They were about $30 each.

[@CookingWithRy]

That's just crazy how expensive it is in places. The cows aren't different!

[@tomevans5458]

Costco in SF Bay Area has prime for about $8.99/lbs. I just picked some "select" at Lucky Supermarket for $2.99/lbs. Not the best, but I trimmed, used a Jacard on them, used kosher salt at 1/2 t per lbs. Bagged and put in freezer for later use.

[@deirdrehill9480]

Awesome flavor on that tri-tip. I am cutting it thin to make a sandwich for lunch. Really tender meat. Thanks, Ry.

[@CookingWithRy]

Thanks!

[@benbryce2788]

your doing some great work on hat PCB Ry, love it !

[@strictlyquality]

Ry, I have never cooked a TriTip and you got me wanting to go find one, cooking in less than an hour, awesome, I am working on a coffee rub that hopefully I will get out sometime during the summer. got lots of products one the list right now. I love your expression on your face when you tasted the piece with the Texas Best Brisket Rub, priceless! Lol. I have been working with an Executive Chef for a restaurant group here in Houston Texas and we have been working on a new Brisket Rub for their restaurants, we are in the testing phase right now, when it is completed I will send you a bottle. It has high dollar ingredients like pink peppercorn and Datil pepper which is $50.00 per lb, and tastes and smells amazing. Thanks for the video and the wonderful description of Texas Best Brisket Rub, greatly appreciated much more than you can ever imagine.

[@CookingWithRy]

Oh you need to get some Tri Tip :)

I’ve been cooking them wrong will try ur method next time, looks yummy

[@operator2904]

[@ImACarbonCopy]

Great lesson on the PBC!! I know how much you love the tri tip. when you get around to cooking an picanha you will see why the Brazilians call her the queen.

[@CookingWithRy]

Yeah I'm wanting to do one soon :)

[@JrSVT]

I'm really interested in the PBC for my next cooker purchase. I have the 22.5" Weber kettle and a Lang 48" patio smoker. I think the PBC would round out my arsenal well. Tri-tip looked great, brother. Keep up the good work.

[@CookingWithRy]

Oh I'm jealous of that Lang. That's one of the larger additions I've been looking at :)

[@jacinb1977]

Great video Ry!!!

[@daves9164]

I cooked a tri tip on my Barrel House cooker and it was great. But I learned my lesson on hanging ribs. I had a few racks of baby backs that I hung and one of them fell down to the coals. I didn't catch it right away because I was inside the house. It burned pretty bad and created a lot of bad smoke. I hope food going forward doesn't smell or taste bad . Anyway, I will double hook ribs from now on.

[@CookingWithRy]

Yeah, I nearly lost a rack. Didn't have enough hooks to double up, but I do now :)

[@darthxellaa912]

The Tri Tip turned out great. Never cooked corn on the grill wrapped in tinfoil, great idea!

[@Theeightmilebend]

Great job Ry on those Tri Tips ! I love that cut of meat !

[@CookingWithRy]

It's my favorite :)

[@georgecutting4265]

Just a thought I had both of them rubs look really really good I bet if you combined half of one with half of the other that would be absolutely killer just a thought

[@CookingWithRy]

I bet you're right :)

[@dogbugler]

Awesome video, I just ate beef fajitas. Still hungry after watcjing this. I one of the smokers I have is a verticle unit with the firebox on one end. I going to try hanging some tri tip in it. Have never cooked tri tip before but looking forward to doing so. Thanks for the inspiration sir. Stay Safe, Bee well. Regards, N. Tx. Doug

Great video Ry... What temp did the smaller tri tip came out @??

[@CookingWithRy]

Only about 2 degrees higher, which was surprising :)

[@dewayneandrews642]

If i wld to cook a tri tip to maybe 140°-145° wld that be considered well done or overdone?? Youts was great but 4 me ; yours had a lil bit too much pink for my liking... I like a lil bit of pink showing... Don't want it well done

[@CookingWithRy]

@@dewayneandrews642 I would try 140 first and then 145 to see which you prefer. You'd be right in that medium zone if you nail those :)

[@jonthornton4083]

Great cook here in the country it’s hard to find any cut other than your basic do you get your cuts at big brand stores. I rigged up my big easy oil less fryer to hang ribs on for fast cooks, my next cook will be tri tip if I can find one local. You have definitely got me out of my box LoL

[@CookingWithRy]

Most of the meat I use comes straight from a few local markets, one of which has a full service butcher :)

[@jonthornton4083]

Thanks Got ya. There is s local market with a butcher here but not much variety. He just bought his first smoker so we do talk I turned him on to you & others trying to get him hooked so he can start ordering them tri tips and other cuts Thanks again keep turning them out

[@ralph2117]

Thinking of buying a Weber kettle any tips on accessories or rotisserie’s

[@CookingWithRy]

If you look in the video description on my videos, you'll find a link to my Amazon Store that contains links to the things I use in the videos for my kettle. I would recommend two things first off: the Briquette Baskets, and a Vortex.

[@tomevans5458]

Aye Ry ; my local butcher was out of tri tip ; so I bought a chef's cut sirloin... My question is that cut of meat still kinda / sorta considered along the line of tri tip?? For a good medium Doneness shld I still take it ( temp wise ) to 140°-145° like we once discussed on your tri tip video awhile back??

That’s the temp I’d shoot for for medium :)

Hi Ry I here by officially crown you the king of TRI TIP my friend. Have an idea for next tri tip episode a coarse salt and pepper only or a cocoa and coffee rub.👍💯

[@CookingWithRy]

I can do that :)

[@aaronkarr9430]

Great video Ry! I normally do tri-tip like you mentioned and am going to try one on the PBC today. I was thinking of taking it to around 110-115 then transferring to a hot charcoal to sear off. Am extra step and maybe the best of both worlds if you have tried that? Also, ever hung corn in the PBC?

Sounds like a good plan. Never hung corn.

Hi Ry, looking really good on those tri tips! What brought me here was your PBC turkey you cooked on another video. Doing turkey tomorrow for Thanksgiving on my PBC.. Did you custom cut that grate or is it hinged? Like that idea where you can hang the meat and put a side dish on the grate. I need one!! ☺ Thanks for the video and have a Happy Thanksgiving to you and the family.

How long did you leave corn in for?

Until it felt tender. It varies. Giving it a squeeze will tell you if the kernels are ready if they begin to collapse under gentle pressure :)

Hi Ry. Great video today! Your tip, doubling up the PBC hooks, is genius! During your fire starting sequence you dumped your lit coals in a center can. Did you make that?
