Reverse-Seared Tri-Tip on the Traeger Ranger
There’s something magical about cooking over smoke in the crisp Colorado air, especially on a long weekend getaway to the mountains. On a recent trip to Florissant, Colorado, we packed our portable power station and our trusty Traeger Ranger to make one thing: a reverse-seared tri-tip that turned heads and silenced appetites. With the smell of hickory in the air and the sun dipping behind the pines, this cook was about slowing down and savoring both the process and the moment. The low-and-slow smoke gave it that deep BBQ flavor, while the hot sear brought out the crusty exterior we crave. Whether you’re cooking at a campsite or your own backyard, this one’s worth the trip
