Looks good man.
I made two tri tips. One with the big bad beef rub and one with traditional santa maria seasoning. I also threw a load of those wicked baked beans underneath em.

Funny thing, in parts of the country they have no idea what tri-tip is. I moved to Wisconsin a while ago, and went up to a couple of meat counters trying to find it. They had never even heard of tri-tip, much less carry the product. So I spent 7 years tri-tipless until we moved back to SoCal. A LONG 7 years....![]()
I am getting a Traeger Junior smoker in a day or two from a buddy. Can't wait to try some of these recipes.
Anyplace around with Traeger pellets?
normally there are many different types of offset smokers. well, let's whittle the categories down to two: offset smokers that suck, and offset smokers that don't. Traeger falls, shall I say heavily, within the latter for a good reason.
great pickup, Mike! you'll get the hang of it by reading up the forums for not just the Traeger, but for other offset smokers as well. I don't have a Weber Smoky Mountain but it is a bullet smoker like mine is, so I've gone to some WSM forums where I get tons of infos and tips. good luck!
any chance of a great smoke out? anyone got a huge backyard?
