I haven't bougght tri-tip for almost a year now. Bought a 6 pack from Costco the other day for $3.49/lb. Does that sound right to you.....I saw the tri-tip mini steaks there for $4.99/lb. Was surprised they took off a full $1.50/lb.[p]Paul

That's a great price. Here in Southern Illinois we pay $5.99 to $6.99 a pound. Good luck and cook away, Tom

Not sure where you are but i have seen the price of TT as high as $6.99/lb here in Nor-cal.

Great price, paid $4.75/lb at costco in Orlando Fl mid december. Morton of Omaha brand.
As long as we are on the subject, here is how I did a batch.
Beef, Tri-Tip, Richard Fl
INGREDIENTS:
2 2 Lbs Each Tri-tips
EVOO
"Rub It Raw" Santa Maria Style BBQ Rub
Mark, 321-267-0513, Titusville, Fl, "havanasltd@aol.com"
Grilling Sauce:
1/2 Cup Red Wine Vinegar
1/2 Cup[ EVOO
1 Tbs Garlic Powder
1 Tbs Fresh ground Black Pepper
Procedure:
1 Sprinkled EVOO on tri-tips and then heavly coated with the rub on both sides. Set covered in glass dish in refrigerator for 6 hours. Took out about 2 hours before cook and left on counter to come to room temperature.
BGE:
1 Got the large BGE up to 650°F direct and seared the tri-tips 3 minutes per side. pulled off the BGE and tented with heavy duty aluminum foil. Set the BGE up for indirect with plate setter legs up and shut down vents until the temperature of BGE got to 400°F about 20-25minutes. The internal temperature was about 98° F when pulled and 109°f when placed back on the BGE. Placed tri-tips back on and marinated about every 5 minutes until it reached 125°F internal. Pulled and let rest for 15 minutes. Final internal temperature was 135°F. Medium
2 The sauce used to cook was from "Morro Bay Rich" recipe for Santa Clara Tri-Tip. Thanks!

Here on the Central Calif coast (near Santa Maria where it all started), tri-tip goes anywhere from $1.99/lb to $6.99/lb at "exclusive places like Whole Paycheck" depending on the grade. The cheap stuff is select, the more expensive is choice. Your price at Costco (always choice) is real good.
