Pork Sirloin Tip Roast

It's been quite a while since I've posted but rest assured I've still been egging. Due to prolonged crappy weather most of those cooks have been quick dishes on the mini. Gotta love how easy it is to do small simple things on that little baby.

Tonight since the weather was perfect I did a "Pork Sirloin Tip Roast" on the MED which I got in a 3 pack at Costco. Never heard of this particular cut but when I saw them I figured I coudln't go weong for the price.


Dusted with some of my basic rib rub.

Then at the last minute decided to slop on some Chili Mustard.

As usual decided to have a few cold ones while tending the grill. Anyone from SW Ohio will remember Burger. They've resurrected all of the old Heudephol-Schoenling beers and I have to say they are quite nice.

Here we are just about done.

After 10 min rest time to slice. Wow it was great. Only took about 2 hours at 325-350*F. Looking forward to a few more of these.

Looks tasty! I'll have to see if I can find that cut and beer here.

I actually just learned about the Pork Sirloin Tip Roast when I was at Kingsford University last month. I've been wanting to try one. We don't have a Costco here but maybe Sam's will have them.

Steven Gerike from the National Pork Board was there and broke down a half hog for us, showing us various cuts, especially some of the ones you don't see every day.

Since you have two left, here's what he said about them (according to my scribbled notes, lol):
Sirloin Tip Roast, it comes from the ham area. Notice how the roast seems like two pieces? He cut the top part off and said it is the same as the tri-tip from beef. That part should be seasoned and grilled at a medium-high direct heat. He recommended that for the remaining part, brine it and roast it indirect or on a rotisserie. Then slice thin for Cubano sandwiches.

I hope some of that might give some ideas for your other two roasts. I want to try one but haven't seen them in stores around here. Checking Sam's out this week.

BTW, yours looks great, nicely cooked! That chili mustard sounds like a chipolte mustard I've been loving recently. Great cook.

I just got excited when I saw "pork siloin tip roast" because it's been on my radar since learning about it. :laugh:
