It was 60 degrees out and I used hickory chips in the smoker which I set to 220 degrees

I kept it in for just under 3hours and pulled it at 145 degrees.  I would have pulled it sooner but it still had a spongy feel to it, it felt under cooked, but it wasn't.  I have to learn to trust the thermometer and not go by feel.

They are tasty! I smoked this one to 120*F IT seared about 45 seconds each side rested for 20-30 minutes.

Nice looking tri-tip!  I did the reverse sear after smoking it to 135 IT.  It was awesome.  I've only done one, it's hard to find where I shop.  Yours has me wanting to go on a hunt for another.

Nice job Carney. Good looking tip you smoked buddy.

I'll be working one over tomorrow for Mother's Day. The one I did last Saturday was such a hit that my wife specifically requested one.
