Tri-tip was success, now for a small Picanha

[englishsmoker]

Trying this similarly to the tri-tip. 225 to an IT of 110, now I’m cranking it to 500 to reverse sear (as well as I can ‘sear’)

Sliced and ready. Pulled off at 131, rested 20 mins and sliced.

Looks like good eats...

Nice job. That’s universal language right there.

That's just the amount of doneness that I like. Wife would like it a little more rare though.
Did you slice with the grain? May want to try slicing in perpendicular direction next time.

I agree with the above^^^^^^, slice it against the grain for a more tender piece of meat. But it sure looks good!

Um....good question, I had trouble determining the grain direction after cooking, but the idea was to go across the grain ;)

Are we sure E englishsmoker didn't slice it correctly? Each slice is with the grain, so when you cut across it, each bite size piece is against the grain.

I used that diagram for the tri-tip, I think I got that right. The Picanha I’m not so sure about..
