  • 3 lb Tri-Tip Roast trimmed
  • ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon oregano dried

Equipment

  • Smoker

Method
 

  1. Setup the smoker to cook at 225°F. Trim the excess fat from the tri-tip roast. Season on both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder and oregano.
  2. Smoke the roast for about an hour until the internal temperature reaches 110°F. Remove the roast and cover with foil for 15 minutes to let it rest.
  3. While the roast is resting, setup the smoker for direct heat and raise the temperature to about 400°F. Return the roast to the smoker and grill (turning over once) until the internal temperature reaches 124°F degrees.
  4. Rest the roast for about 10 minutes. Slice across the grain and serve.
