One of the MAIN reasons I bought the PB Pro Series 850 was for its ability to sear. Having NEVER cooked a tri-tip on a pellet grill before, I was pumped to see the results. Wow! What an absolute pleasant surprise this turned out to be. I marinated it for about 6 hours. I then cranked up the PB to 500 and set the trip on the grill. The wifi kept me updated on the meat's IT. When it hit around 110 IT, I opened up the sear plate and cooked it for about 4 minutes per side - until an IT of 140. The results are what you see here.
The searing function worked great, as did the wifi, which really helped ensure that the cook came out to perfection.
