Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tri-Tip

    Trim any excess fat from the tri-tip roast if necessary. Pat it dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Meat

    In a small bowl, mix together kosher salt, fresh black pepper, garlic powder, chopped rosemary, and chopped thyme. Rub the mixture all over the tri-tip roast, ensuring it is evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Smoker

    Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). Use your preferred wood chips for smoking.

  4. 4

    Smoke the Tri-Tip

    Place the seasoned tri-tip in the smoker. Smoke for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare.

  5. 5

    Rest and Carve

    Once done, remove the tri-tip from the smoker and let it rest for 10-15 minutes. Slice against the grain and serve immediately.
