Smoked Tri-Tip

Jason Hardee, Elite BBQ Smokers
First, you may be asking what a Tri-Tip Steak is? Well, it gets its name from the shape. It is a triangular cut of beef that comes from the bottom sirloin of the hindquarter of a cow. Everyone loves a good grilled steak, and a Tri-Tip steak allows you to please a lot of different flavor requests. Why, because of its shape, the tri-tip will have different levels of “Doneness” in the same piece of steak. So, at your next party, make sure you add this to your menu, you will thank me for it.
