Here is some game day fun I got into. My wife and kids had planned the charcuterie cheese tray for a while. It features some habanero peach jelly from my buddy's garden. Several cheeses and 6 different cuts.

I reverse seared the tri tip and finished it at 128 on a screaming hot grate.

The queso has venison from my youngest son and some really hot peppers from my buddy's garden. I smoked it for 2-3 hrs on 225 in the mes 30 with the auber controller.

WOW!! That is a beautiful spread of food right there. All of it looks excellent but that tri tip is off the charts. Very well done.

Wow, i'm a new here and have made only 2 tri tips. I smoked both to about 130° IT with the smoker between 110° and 120°. It only took 1.5 hours. What did you do to get it to cook for that long at 225°? Looks delicious.

Thanks, this was done on my masterbuilt mes30 controlled by an auber controller. It was also a really big tri tip. Other than that I just set the smoker probe temp to 225 and the food probe temp to 125 and let it go. When it hit 125 it went onto the pit boss ceramic that was already screaming hot. Seared it off for 2 minutes per side, rested for 15 minutes then sliced and ate.
