I work in Lewisburg and still traffic is bad. I must be getting old.

 

[Hawging It]

Schools out for the holidays so the kids are taking advantage of hanging out with friends. So that left me and the wife alone together for a change. Decided we would have a tri tip for supper.

Tri Tip Marinade:
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup wooster
1/3 cup oj
4 cloves minced garlic
Red pepper flakes (to taste)
2tbls brown sugar

I marinated the night before and all day yesterday.

While I brought the smoker up to temp I rested the Tri Tip on the counter and hit it with coarse black pepper on both sides.

Once it hit 120° I seared it over the flame.

Wife just did some fries with it. I mean no kids so spending time on sides was the last thing we were thinking about haha.
