Price was right $2.69 a pound, 6 pound roast but then I started reading about prepartion UGH!!! Doesn't sound good.  Any suggestions would be appreicated have never cooked a sirlion tip roast!  What I read online is that it tends to be dry, very little fat, and tendons.    UGH!!!  Looked great in the store.

Smoke it to about 135 then let it cool off and slice it real thin. It makes great sandwiches

They can be great. Couple of options, you can wrap in Cheese cloth and let it age in your refer for a week, changing the cloth after the first 2 days. That will help tenderize and intensify flavor a bit. They will take a Marinade really well. Or 24 hours with your fav Rub and Smoke at 225*F to desired temp but not over 140*F, to keep it moist...JJ

Either option and if you rub it and smoke it be sure and add Chef Jimmy's Au Jus...it's awesome
