Smoked tri-tip after changing oil

2nd oil change today at 10,322 miles by me. Screw those 3-hour free oil changes! Amazon Basics 0w-20 and OEM filter and crush washer. Something satisfying about doing it myself in 20 minutes and KNOWING it’s done right! Why not break out the smoker on a windy SoCal spring day?
Tri tip marinated overnight in orange/ginger marinade. Cow Lick rub and into the Red Oak Chip smoke at 225 until 130 degrees. Then onto the bbq to sear until 140 or less! I’ll post up the results in a couple of hours. Oh and small home grown sweet taters from last fall and regular small yellow taters.

 

Hell yea!! Love the food!! Mouth watering and now making me wanna get my bbq out and cook something! BUT at 35* it’s a bit chilly today

 

For some reason I thought you were smelling smoked tri tip after you changed oil. I’m not sure if I would want to find the problem if that happened haha.

 

I like to brush a little of that 0W20 on my meat. Helps the rub stick and makes a nice bark with a bit of a nutty flavour. Best on beef I find.

 

I like oil but not motor oil​

 

Off the smoke at 136. Off the grill at 141. It’s about the best I can do. Have a great weekend, amigos!

 

I'll be nice.

 

Oh yeah, almost forgot the sexy bitch!

 

that's a dong cut for sure

 

Now i'm hungry, off to Applebee's I go.

 

socal checking in

 

Hate this thread

 

I was thinkin, deep fried Tri-tip in old engine oil. Now that would be a true GearHead!
