Smoke'm if you got'em

[Jarid in Cedar]

So with the tri-tip, I rubbed it down with olive oil followed by a rub mix that i got at Sportsman's Warehouse.

The Traeger was set at 225 with a mix of cherry and hickory. Cooked until 130 at the thickest spot, then sear on the gas grill for 3 minutes per side

This was after a 15 minute rest

It was very good. I was a little light on the rub, and some pieces the tenderness was affected because I didn't get it cut just right, but for about 2 hours of time, this will be a Sunday staple I believe.
