Smoke to 120, then sear the hell out of it.

I’ve done both and both were great. I was a fan of the original Santa Maria Tri tip cooked over a fire which is pretty much direct heat.

About a year ago, a friend brought some Tri tips to put on my smoker as I was smoking brisket. I didn’t think smoking them would be a good method but he wanted to do it. So I did. They were great as well.

There’s not a big low and slow advantage to getting it to 125 degrees

More steak than brisket in how you attack it as a cliff note. That said, reverse sear underpinning it (sous vide or smoke) can help make it fool proof instead of straight cooking high heat which takes a little more skill
