This is probably my gazillionth tri tip post, and I'm still in  love with this cut,  what is it about this cut? My thoughts are the fast cooking, great taste, and ability to serve within an hour of setting it on the grill. I heavily rub mine, and make sure it comes off at 125-130 for med rare goodness.
This one is Superior Angus from RD, rubbed heavily with coarse salt and pepper,  Miners mix rub, and Hot Mamasxxx rub.
Cooked direct at around 350, flipped a few times, then opened egg and flame seared until 125 internal. I just ate half of it. Need nap, Meaty Christmas.

    That looks great! I never get tired of looking at Tri-Tip pics.
    I'm doing one for Christmas dinner rather than the traditional (around my house) Prime Rib. 
    Thanks for another tritip post!  :)
