I've been searching for smoker recipes for tri tips of beef and pork without
much success. I guess it would be easy to overcook either, and end of up
with dry meat? If either is marinated is it a waste to put in wood? One site
says that.
TIA

Tri-tip is mostly for grilling, or what I call smoke grilling. Grilling
indirectly at a fairly high temp - 400F or so. It should still be pink
inside, pull at 132-135F. Start them at room temp to make it cook more
evenly.

There is no equivalent cut of pork - except maybe a pork sirloin, but they
don't have any fat the way I get them.

It's always good to use wood, marinaded or not!

(this one's tasty, but be careful on smoker time - 2hrs. max!)

(with this one you sear over high heat, then move and cook indirectly -
always use an instant read thermometer to test for temp)

enjoy!
