So lets try a favorite recipe thread:

Brazlian Style BBQ - Tri-Tip

Ingredients:

Tri Tip ( Costco has a great selection, I good size Tri-Tip should feed 2-3 )
Kosher Rock Salt
Dole Pineapple Juice (large can)

1. Cut the Tri-Tip into even squares (you will have 2 triangled pieces, those will be for your well done eaters)
2. Use a large rectangular cake pan, place a layer of rock salt, place cut Tri-Tip on rock salt. If your party is for 2 then use a Square Pan.
3. Place another layer of rock salt on the Tri-Tip pieces. Don't be shy, cover those suckers.
4. Pour the Pineapple juice on the side edges, do not pour on the salt on top of the Tri-Tip, the salt will fall off.
5. Marinate for 20-30 minutes, while you are preping the rest of your meal. The juice will look murky by now, ready

Pre-Heat your Gas Grill on High, the place the Tri-Tip pieces, leave on high. Cook each side for 5 minutes then flip. You want to char the outside.

Remove and place on cutting board (one's with Au Jus catcher would be best to catch the juice) cut in 1/4" pieces, PERPENDICULAR to the grain of the meat for a TENDER treat. If you cut with the grain, you will have stronger jaw muscles by the meals end

Bon Apetite!

Catch and kill 8 to 10 possums during the wintertime. Hang them out until frost hits them, then skin and cut all meat from bone. Grind possum meat, adding red pepper, black pepper, sage and salt to taste. Sack and hang in smokehouse until ready to eat.

A nice way to finish bbq ribs is to wrap them in foil the last 40 mins or so with a generous amount of apple cider (not juice), which adds a nice apple flavor to the smokey rub flavor.

A tip on paprika . . . Look in Euro delis for paprika from the Szeged region of Hungary. The sweet is incredible. The hot can blow your head off.

Rick, garlic and onion "powder" seriously. I hope you at least meant fresh oregano.
