Hi All,
After my last few posts about having problems getting up to temp, I went for a tri-tip for dinner tonight. SUCCESS! Even my wife liked it.
I got a 2.5lb tri-tip, and I applied John Henry's East Texas Mojave Garlic Pepper rub. Since I knew that I would be out of the house for a bit, I cooked it low & slow, mesquite at 250f. When I got home almost 90 minutes later, the BGE was up to 300f, and the meat was 130f. Another 20 minutes and it was at 145f.
Perfecto! as my daughter would say.
It is now sliced up for sandwiches in the fridge, awaiting tomorrows lunch.
Later,
edg

It's the only one of the JH rubs that I have tried. For this use, it works real well. I haven't enough experience with it on other dishes to comment.
