Tri-Tip Dry Brined

Tri-Tip is a lean cut of beef that you can turn into an extremely tender delight. I use the dry brining technique to bring out the most flavor and tenderness of any tri-tip. This recipe is perfect for eating tri-tip on its own or turning it into a mouth-watering tri-tip sandwich

Ingredients:

• Tri-Tip

• Kosher Salt (1/2tsp kosher salt for every pound of meat)

• Steak Seasoning

• Olive oil

• 1 tablespoon butter

Instruction:

• Preheat smoker

• Remove any access fat or silver skin from the tri-tip

• Season the tri-tip with kosher salt

• Put the tri-tip in the refrigerator for 24 hours

• Lightly coat with olive oil and liberally season with steak seasoning

• Place tri-tip in your smoker. Place a heat probe into the thickest part of the tri-tip

• Remove the tri-tip from the smoker and immediately sear all sides

• Sear the tri-tip in a cast iron pan for around 30 seconds to a minute on each side (I add the butter after I sear the first side)

• After searing all sides place the tri-tip on a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes

• Cut the tri-tip against the grain to get the most tender bites of meat.

Enjoy!
