Tri Tip with Red Wine Peppercorn Sauce

[Xring01]

Stater Bros in Murrieta, has some damn good pre marinated Texas style Tri Tips...
I smoke it at 225 degrees till internal temp hits 125 degrees, then I sear the shit out of it on the propane grill and internal temp typically hits 135.

Now for the one of my finest recipe creations. This is a no shitter... its fucking good. Like amazing goood.

Red Wine Peppercorn Sauce

Serves 2

3/8” slice of a stick of butter

½ of small container of mushrooms – chopped up

1/3 of medium yellow onion – chopped finely

2 Teaspoons of Peppercorns – crushed/chopped up

2 Teaspoons of Garlic

2/3 cup of red wine – (on the sweeter side if not add a bit of brown sugar)

.5-2/3 cup of crème

1 tsp. of tomato paste, or a good squirt of ketchup
1 beef bullion cube



Heat skillet on med-to-med low heat.

Add Butter, mushrooms & onions. Sauté until onions are translucent and mushrooms are reduced in size (10-15minutes).

Add garlic, peppercorns for a few minutes. Add Red wine, tomato paste, 1/3 cup water and reduce that about 30-40% add beef bullion cube.

Add crème, and about half teaspoon of brown sugar. Pending the wine, you have; you may need to add a bit more. Sauté/reduce on low heat. This is not to make it sweet, its to balance the acidity of the wine you are using.

Reduce it to the consistency you like serve with Steak, Tri Tip or ___________________.

I made this again last night, with Ribeyes, with a few modifications
used 2% milk, becuase I didnt have heavy cream,
used Sangiovese wine

I also added more whole mushrooms and some larger slices of onions, mostlyfor the presentation aspect.

This is probably my best recipe, I need one of you to try it, and tell me I am not full of shit.

Never seen this recipe, but its pretty similar to one I make for my wife.

Replace the bacon with hot links, gives you that sweat heat.

What is your rub and temperature for the tri-tip?

 

[Javajoe]

For MY Tri-tip I smoke at 225 till internal of about 130 then sear it on my BBQ for a couple minutes then let it rest 10 min.
My Wife likes her meat Well Done, no pink so I either cook hers until 155 at 225 then sear then rest or I do 225 until it reaches 170 then I wrap it with foil and some apple juice and put it in the oven until it reaches 203 or so then wrap it in a towel, throw it in a small cooler for a couple hours then pull it like a pork shoulder and put in on rolls with BBQ sauce and cole slaw.
Here is a really good rub and BBQ sauce recipe

Intermission do I flip or not? Internal temp about 135-140 right now

 

[Javajoe]

I flip the Tri every hour regardless of internal temp. All depends what your looking for. Those bacon wrapped jalapeños look amazing

 

[Javajoe]

Make sure you cut that across the grain. Most people forget since the Tri tip grain runs across it and not with it. I normally cut it in half first then slice it long ways

Your photographic skills are far better than mine. I guess I need to up my game.
But I am curious to hear your thoughts on the recipe.

 

[WYRD]

Finished picture excited to try it I'll post up how we liked it thank you for the recipe

 

[WYRD]

Wife and I give it only thing we do differently is not cut up the onions and mushroom so finely

Dusted off the cobwebs on this for Fathers Day!,

I tweeked the mushroom onion peppercorn recipe a bit… I cut the mushrooms in half, and larger slices of onions… This time I used a blackstone type griddle for the steaks. Which gives them more of a maliard effect. Nope I didnt look up how to spell it, I dont care enough to.

I will go back to cooking steaks on Weber Summit Charcoal grill with mesquite, its a better steak.
I think I done messing with the mushroom onion recipe…. I have it right where I like it… damn good.

Thats was pretty much Fathers day dinner, didn’t show the taters my daughter made.
