Are you in NWA?  There are several places that sell it up here.

[Pulled(PP)pork]

in W. Tn, we can get it from a butcher, but he wants $11-13/lb and it doesn't look the same as how we buy it when in Cali

the Cali version comes already dry rubbed

I buy them at my Harp's as well.

[pigture perfect]

Last one I bought, the wife stuck in the crockpot. She wanted to surprise me when I got home from work. She did.

[acxken]

The first one I did was overcooked and tough.  I cooked it indirect. The second one I did was cooked direct like a steak to an internal temp of 130. It was great.

[acxken]

How do you cook yours?

Didn't know they had them. Thanks!

[acxken]

If you are in conway they keep them frozen in the back. You have to ask for them.

[/sarcasm on]

I'm glad to know harp's has them. My wife is from Cali, and one of my favourite parts of each visit is the tri tip!

Dear God!!! That looks good!!!   

[DeltaBoy]

It is good we see them some in some restaurants here in DFW!

[Inhogswetrust]

It is a bottom sirloin. If you can't get it try a top sirloin. Lot's of recipe's out there but usually grilled or smoked.

They actually had them out and thawed. Bought two of them and DAMMMNNNN they were good.

They're even good cut into steaks. It's a nice flavorful cheap cut of beef.

[cosmodrum]

I'm due for another tri tip.

[Filthy_McSwine]

Anyone know where to get one in Central Ark?  Kroger supposedly has them but it must be hit and miss because they've been out every time I've checked.

Where is Central Ark for you?

Harps in Conway has them in the back.

Weldon's Meat Market in Hot Springs is where I've got them in the past.

Maumelle.  Conway is just a short drive up the road.

Thanks.

My tummy grumbles ever time I see this picture.

[/sarcasm on]

It may be something in every harps. I recently moved to bryant, and the harps on 5 in Benton has them too

[DadVader1]

That's good to know!  I don't have a Harps nearby in LR, so the Harps on 5 is where I go to stock up on Ozark Oak.  I'll have to look for a tri tip on my next trip too.

[DeltaBoy]

My HEB butcher said he would cut me some Tri tips he just needed 24 hours notice.

[Dropkick]

Got one at Kroger in West Memphis yesterday. Gonna grill it tonight on the egg. Any suggestions on how hot for how long?

I picked up a two pack at Sam's yesterday (first time to try them) that I'm planning on doing a reverse sear on my egg.

I'll put it on the egg at about 275-300 with some hickory until it reaches an internal temp of probably 110-115. Take it off and let it rest while I "open-er-up" then sear until it reaches the internal temp of 130-135 with the final target of 135-140 after the final rest. 

I've also read several posts that have people have cooked direct at around 400 until it reaches their target internal temp but I've had great success with the reverse sear method so I'm going to give it a shot. 

Good Luck!

[PharmacistHog]

Well here's my attempt ( thanks to porkryan for the tips/pointers) was also a reverse sear.

[PorkRinds]

Your first attempt looks way better than mine did, I assure you!

[DadVader1]

PharmacistHog, that is a thing of beauty!  I'm going to have to try one of those soon.  I'll probably try a reverse sear about like I do with beef tenderloins.  Did you end up with any notes about what you might do the same & what you might do differently next time.  It looks like you nailed it, so I'm guessing the list of things you might do differently is pretty short!

I didn't know that you were supposed to cut it 3 different directions.  I let it rest longer than I intended for the sear because I got busy practicing baseball with my little boy.  It rest 45 minutes before I seared it.  Other than that, wouldn't change a thing. 

[Hogwop]

Damn Pharm, that looks good.

Shouldn't look at threads like this when I'm hungry.

[PharmacistHog]

Thanks. I love cooking. My egg gets used a LOT. SOOOOO worth the money.

[LSUFan]

I just worchestershired

[Tim Harris]

I will be cooking up a tri tip for dinner tonight.  I'm really surprised some of you guys have so many issues getting them.  I'm in Harrison and can walk in to the local grocery store and pick one up on the way home from work pretty much any time.

It is strange Tim that we can not just walk in and buy them here in TX or in Ark. I am going to visit some other stores and see if they have them.  We have a Albertsons and Kroger in Town.

Do you mind telling me how it's labeled?  I saw a 2 pack of something that looked like what y'all are cooking but it did not say "tri tip".

[PharmacistHog]

Bottom sirloin (I think). 

[PorkRinds]

Bottom sirloin (I think).

Yep, that's another common name for it. 

[Filthy_McSwine]

Bottom sirloin (I think). 

Thx.  I think that's what was on the label.

[DeltaBoy]

Good to know cause my butcher gave me a funny look when I asked about getting some Tri-tips!
