Title: Bourbon barrel oak Sirloin Tip Roast in the Little Guy!
Post by: DivotMaker on March 09, 2014, 03:07:11 PM
I'm smoking a 6.94 lb sirloin tip roast today!  Yesterday, I coated in mustard and Jim Baldridge's Secret Seasoning, wrapped and overnight in the fridge.  Today, it's in the #1 with a water pan, 3 oz. of bourbon barrel oak (from Fruitawood), temp set to 200.  I'll be pulling it out for a rest at 130 internal temp, then a reverse sear in the hot oven!

More to follow!

The roast, which I like to call "poor man's prime rib," came out great!  It took 4 hours to get to 131 IT, at which point I wrapped it and put it in the cooler.  I seared it for 8 minutes in a 540-degree oven.  A little au jus, some broccoli and corn, and all was right with the world! 8)

This will make some great French dip sandwiches this week!

Thanks, Walt!  It was tender, but I really want to dry-age one of these suckers.  I think it would age really well, and come out tasting like prime rib even more!  The sirloin tip roast is an often-overlooked cut of beef for smoking.  I love the flavor of them!
