Kendal Adair stopped by the HowtoBBQRight headquarters this week to show me how he does a reverse seared tri tip competition style.
We both competed against each other earlier this year at a local SCA contest where tri tip was one of the categories. He walked with a top finish in Tri Tip, so needless to say, I was eager to learn his secrets.
For this recipe Kendal starts with a 3lb, Prime Grade Tri Tip from Matador Prime Steak. Starting with a good quality piece of beef puts you on the right foot, but you also have to know how to properly cook it.
After a quick trim to remove any excess fat and silver skin, Kendal hit the tri tip with a good dose of coarse ground Kosher Salt. He uses the salt as a dry brine and only leaves it on the tri tip for 8-10 minutes. The salt is rinsed off and then he tenderizes it using a jaccard.
Next comes the seasonings where he builds the flavor. First a dose of Killer Hogs AP Seasoning for savory salt, pepper, garlic notes; then a spicy BBQ Rub - my Killer Hogs Hot Rub here, followed lastly with coarse ground black pepper for a little more oomph.
The cook was pretty straight forward for a reverse sear. Fire up a smoker to 275⁰, insert a meat probe to monitor temp, and take it off the smoke once it hits 115⁰. We used the Thermoworks DOT to monitor the temps.
Any pit can be used for this cook as long as the temperature stays in the 250-275 range. Kendal used my Traeger for this stage of the cook and while the tri tip was in the smoke he fired up a PK 360 for the sear. And we used a set of GrillGrates on top of the factory grate to get those amazing grill marks.
As soon as the tri tip hit 115⁰ internal, he immediately moved it to the grill grates on the PK and put a hot and fast sear on both sides. The tri tip came off the PK once the internal hit 125⁰ but you can cook it to your desired doneness. To check out final internal temp, we used my trusty Thermoworks Thermapen.
After a short 10 minute rest, Kendal sliced it across the grain and we dove in for the kill bite.
The thing that most impressed me with this cook was the tenderness of the tri tip. The combination of the salt brine and jaccard tenderizing produced a prime rib-like mouth feel. Tri tip tends to be a little tough if it’s not properly prepared but this version melted in your mouth!
