I saw this mentioned several times in the other thread. I have heard about this beofre and Saw that Chops in Broussard has it. Can someone explain what type of cut it is and how it is generally cooked? Basically, can someone educate me on this cut. Thanks.

Best part of the sirloin. Smoke it, with course black pepper and course salt on it.

I mostly see it mentioned by Californians. Looked for it here unsuccessfully. After reading where it comes from, I'm pretty sure I would not like it anyway.

It's more of a roast than a steak. It's good.

Typically will need to ask a butcher to cut the tri tip for you.

Its the bottom sirloin. I like to smoke it for a few hours then sear the outside. Its a wonderful cut of meat and needs to be served on the rare side of medium rare. It is a highly popular cut to bbq in california, but it can be found easily in baton rouge.

It's also good from a crock pot with onions, potatoes, carrots, and mushrooms.

Thanks guys. So, it's not like a steak that you would cook really hot, really fast and it would be tender.

I did grill one once and it still came out pretty good. I overcooked it a little, and cut it with the grain, but I think I would do it again if I stumble across another good deal.

We have neighbors from California that marinate tri tips in Jack Daniels and they are good.

Guess we arent allowed to talk about tri tip. This thread is anchored. Boo.

I guess it's more relevant to discuss crawfish prices again haha.

It's probably anchored because of the non-specific title. Or it's a conspiracy against this cut of meat.
