Tonight I smoked a couple of tri tips for a party. This was my second time smoking tri tips and I used the following marinade, which I can now recommend.
Red Wine Marinade
1/2 cup red wine (cabernet)
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
2 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
Here's photos:

After
The tri tips were about 2.3 lbs each and they smoked for 2 hrs and 15 mins with cherry wood, and then I moved them into a ceramic baking dish and wrapped with heavy foil. Then transported them to the party and carved them up about an hour after they'd been off the grill. They were still warm and a nice juicy medium rare.
