Tri tip from Ikedas (auburn CA) - pre-marinated.
i used a slow grill recipe. New for me. I fired up the left side so that it was around 400. Then seared each side of the meat for 5 min. 15-ish minutes on the right side (zero flame) and 10 minutes of rest.
I prefer rare to medium-rare and served medium rare to the family in very thin slices. Big hit.
thank you FlyerTalk dining buzz people for inspiring me to expand my current skills.
side dishes:
baked potato
warmed sandwich buns (for the family)
raw carrot & celery
roasted carrots
sauted onions

Delia's Tamales. Apparently an institution in So. Texas, and for good reason. Best tamales I've ever had in my life.
