I also marinate it for a few hours before smoking in a 50/50 mixture of Pepsi and BBQ sauce. Once the meat is in the smoker, I'll boil down the Pepsi-BBQ mix and then use it for basting the tri-tip for the last 15 minutes or so.

I'd forgotten about the Pepsi trick, been doing too much citrus of late. Will have to consider for this week/end.

My little smoker on the side of my pit doesnt work very well. The hottest I have made it was about 175 and that was me cramming it. I can put the fire in the main part and bring up the temp no problem but its just not an efficient smoker. The Tritip was good but I over cooked it so it was falling apart.

Tri-tip does well with direct heat as well. If there is room, build the fire at one end and put the tri-tip at the other.

Nice. I went with a reverse flow smoker from Lang. I have been very pleased with how well it keeps the temperature where I want it.

How much are you honestly looking at smoking in one batch? The reason I ask, is the Lang I purchased is about $200 cheaper than the one you're looking at and I've done 60-70lbs of pork shoulder in one batch. That's a lot of meat! The reverse flow design really helps keep the entire smoke chamber an even temperature (traditional boxes tend to be hotter on the firebox side, in my experience).

Running the smoke through the hot box on top of the firebox is a great way to flavor up some veggies. I smoked some beef brisket in the main smoking chamber and also did some large zucchini discs (2-3" diameter, 3/8-1/2" thick) in the hot box.

Just some food for thought.

You should. It seems to scare Americans a bit, but it's 100% safe as long as you buy never frozen, high quality meat. I've made it myself at home a million times, with both fish and meat.

That might help. And now back to BBQing, because remember... this is not a thread about eating raw meat, or boiling meat!!!

Rather than start a new tread I thought I would just tack on the question to this one. What is everyone's favorite thing to grill? What cuts of meat?

If it's strictly grilling and not smoking etc then skirt steak. Quick, cheap and delicious.
