I live in Japan…..absolutely love tri-tip. However absolutely hate MC Holy Cow. Not sure if I got a bad batch but it tastes nasty and is like 50% pepper. Like makes the beef taste like biting in to a giant cracked pepper.

Well as a life long Californian (yeah i know i know but i am not a typical Californian), big classic tri-tip fan and only 45 minutes from the crap hole Santa Maria, along with being a Mr Meat Church channel fan, even though he is a Cowboys fan, i decided to try this. So here is my experience….I used a Oklahoma Joes smoker/grill with hickory pellets. I was also simmering a batch of his chili recipe which we are a huge fan of as well but i typically use left over tri-tip instead of brisket just because i have more of that. But back to this recipe. I followed his recipe but the only thing i did differ is that i used tallow from the tri tip trimmings that i made during the first stage (unwrap cooking time). Then when i went to wrap it instead of just butter i halved the butter and added the tri tip tallow. WHOA…..Game changer. Like Matt, my wife was a HUGE fan! I am not sure i will go back to the santa maria style way. Another one of my main reasons for trying this as one of our local craft breweries in my town, not crap hole gangster Santa Maria, has a tri tip mac and cheese combo that is awesome. Their Tri Tip was so tender and not like typical SM style so i thought maybe Matt has something that will give me input on this as it totally reminded me of Brisket i had in Texas. So yeah i am a changed man. I know Matt didnt event this as apparently i missed this on social media but thanks Matt!

I just pace of pair of these and followed the cooking method to a T… and I was blown away! We had friends over and they all had 3rds! I made a quick chimichurri for dipping and it was phenomenal. We ate the few slices of leftover cold the next day! Another great recipe 👌🏽

Worst cut of beef ever. Freaking left coasters don’t know anything.

I smoke them for only about three hours and then into the oven at 225 for about five to six hours in a covered cast iron. It literally falls apart. I use the resulting broth to make enchilada sauce and of course shredded, smoked tri tip as the filling for the enchiladas. Dynamite.
