On Friday I was poking around in the garage fridge and found a tr-tip way in the back of the freezer and thought...chili :) I sprinkled the tri-tip with various rubs, then grilled it up and set aside in the fridge for slicing on Sunday. After slicing the meat, I tossed some chopped peppers, onions, jalapeños and thick sliced bacon in a pot for a few then added the tri-tip. Once everything was ready I added pinto beans and let everything simmer for awhile. It sure tasted good and I made sure not to skimp on the tri-tip chunks.

The tri-tip just off the grill.

Slicing and cut into cube’s.

Here’s the peppers, jalapeños, onion and bacon cooking away before adding everything else.

One of two bowls I ate, we also had cornbread but I didn’t get any shots of it.

don't let Helen catch you doing that to tri tip... she'll have yer head
I was thinking along those lines Gary, If I have a Tri Tip the last place I'm putting it is in chili, but it does look good. West Coasters are spoiled with Tri Tip in every market. :D

looks dang good to me too... but Helen would have heart failure.

I grilled some once and added grilled peppers and oinions and made fajitas and she read me the riot act. LOL

I know...I know but when I found it in the freezer there was frost all over it so I was worried it was freezer burned. Better to use then waste no? :)
