Equipment

  • Ninja Woodfire
  • Woodfire Flat Top
  • Woodfire Elevated Rack
  • Steak Weight
  • Smokin Pecan Pellets

Ingredients

Tri-Tip

  • 3 lb Tri-Tip
  • 3 tablespoon Dad Dust See Note for Ingredients
  • Sea Salt 1% of Weight of Tri-Tip
  • Cracked Peppercorns
  • Herbs De Provence
  • Wagyu Beef Fat Spray

Chimichurish:

  • 1 Cup Chopped Parsley
  • ½ Cup Olive Oil
  • 3 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Fish Sauce More if you like the flavor
  • 6 Cloves of Garlic Minced
  • 1 teaspoon Herbs De Provence
  • 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Peppercorns

Instructions

  • Dry Brine: Season the tri tip with sea salt—use 1% of its weight in salt or about ½ teaspoon per pound. Place it in the fridge uncovered overnight.
  • Prep the Woodfire: Fill the Woodfire with your favorite pellets (don’t forget the Dad Shake) and set it to Smoker / CLD / 1 Hour. If CLD isn’t available, use the lowest temp setting.
  • Season the Tri Tip: Take the tri tip out of the fridge and season it with Dad Dust, cracked pepper, and herbs.
  • Start Smoking: If you are using the Smoking Pecan Pellets you can add the Tri-Tip to the Woodfiire during the ignition and pre-heat. I have not noticed any off flavors doing this. If you are using other pellets than wait until the Woodfire says “Add Food” and place the tri tip on the elevated rack and smoke for 1 hour. Use the Pro Connect probe if available.
  • Reset and Smoke Again: Reset the Woodfire to Smoker / 225°F(107°C) / 2 Hours. If using Pro Connect, set it to Manual Thermometer Cook with a target temp of 120°F(49°C). Check and refill pellets if needed.
  • Make the Sauce: Mix all the sauce ingredients in a bowl and set aside.
  • Sear the Tri Tip: When the Tri-Tip reaches 120°F(49°C) remove it and set the Woodfire to Grill / HI/ 30 minutes (no need to hit the Woodfire button). Let it preheat for at least 10 minutes. Spray the tri tip with beef tallow spray and sear on all sides. Use a weight to keep the Tri-Tip in contact with the griddle. In total it was about 3 minutes sear total.
  • Rest and Serve: Let the tri tip rest for about 10 minutes before slicing against the grain and serving with the sauce.
