Rubbed her down with Salt Lick Rub, and smoked at 225 until an internal temp of 138. Wrapped in foil with 1/2 cup of apple juice and 1/2 cup of Worcestershire sauce, until an internal temp of 160. Wrapped in a towel, and let rest until the internal temp was 143. Sliced and served, on as a sandwich on potato rolls with homemade garlic butter, onion, pickle and my homemade BBQ sauce.

Looks really great! Just curious. 160 is a fairly high IT for beef. Are you a well done kinda guy?

Looks good looks like it was still juicy. If your not a well done guy try a reverse sear smoke to about 115* then sear on a hot grill for a great char!

I prefer any smoked meat well done, especially if it's going on a sandwich. If I'm having tri tip served like a steak, then I'll go as high as 125-130
