Anyone Sous Vide a Tri Tip? (Pics included)

I'm going to give it a try. Thinking salt & fresh ground pepper, maybe some minced garlic in the bag. 3 1/2 hrs at 135ish with a cast iron or grill sear to finish with a chimichurri sauce.
I'm open to suggestions.

Yep, at least monthly. I usually do 4-6 hours at 124.
Tri tip is great because you can experiment with different seasonings, although salt and pepper is delicious too.

Do what Ron does. I go 6-7 hours around 123-125 too.

You looking for Med-Well intentionally?

No, just found a recipe recommending 137 for fat rendering. We are all rare type folks in this house, but wasn't sure how that'd translate on a tri tip.
I'll go lower, longer. (TWSS)

6 hours, 131, sear at 700 on cast iron flat top , flip every 30 secs (I do that for all steaks)

Yes, works great. Go lower like said above, basically I treat it like a steak. My favorite is reverse seared on the smoker with carne asada rub and chimi sauce.
One important thing of note. Make sure to slice against the grain and really pay attention bc the muscle fibers rotate 90° midway.

Here we go-
Side note- my kid had a culinary class and the chef instructed them to place the garnishes in the bag, not touching the meat. That's what I did, a shallot, garlic, and thyme. Just salt and pepper on the meat.
Additional side note- only choice cut, didn't have anything else. Got a 1.75 lbs piece for under $12.00.

I would SV it at 119.
And smear the chimichurri on a cutting board, place the cooked and sear meat on it, and slice creating a board sauce. Great presentation and taste.

I’m normally low 130s too
Have been doing these pretty regularly lately
Have been doing a few different pre mixed seasonings. Carnivore black is the favorite around the house but I like to rotate for variety.

I like it rare, and to get a very nice sear. Usually it reads around 125 when done.
Surf and Turf I just did. Wagyu Pichana and King Crab legs, with the chimichurri board sauce.

I got one of those pre-seasoned tri-tips from Costco in the vac sealed cryo package. I put it just like that into the water bath for about 2 hours.
Don’t do that.

Nope. It may have been a combination of things, but it didn’t taste good at all.
