15 lb whole strip loin with fat cap

I am having this for a BBQ tomorrow for about 25. I want to slice it for sammies. Have never done something like this ie have had striploins before obviously but never seen a whole piece (damn Costco!). Its probably 3-4" thick on average

Any suggestions? Is reverse sear likely the best way? Get it to about 120 then sear it up and remove around 130? Should I trim off the fat before cooking?

Does anyone have any good sauce suggestions for the sandwiches?

Thanks!

    Cook it like a prime rib, do not trim off the fat unless it is extremely thick. Cook to IT of 120-130, nice medium/medium rare. Horseradish Sauce (Mayo and horseradish) would be tasty with some provolone cheese on a nice roll.

    Caramelized onions would be awesome as well as a topping.

    Thanks Mel. I do my roasts generally direct at about 350-375 till 128 internal so will give that a shot...I will also make some horseradish from scratch and my wife will like the onion idea! I have some Swiss cheese as well so set to go!
