funny that you should mention having been introduced to tri-tip in santa maria. i doubt that there is a californian who doesn't remember the tri-tip sandwiches that dan gagliani made at many of our specialties. he did it for years - always showed up with his bbq grill and a cooler full of seasoned meat. some people came to the shows just to get the sandwiches! diane Diane Silver-Strasser Silstra German Shepherds _Skatiebug'z_ (http://skatiebugz.shutterfly.com/) The online store for everything German Shepherd and then some! _http://skatiebugz.blogspot.com_ (http://skatiebugz.blogspot.com/) Skater's Blog In a message dated 11/21/2011 11:59:11 A.M.

I was introduced to it in Santa Maria, CA years ago. Here in the midwest we can't find tri-tip. When I do it here, I use top sirloin. By the way, the dogs around here don't get any, because there is nothing left for them.

I went to the market on Sat and they had fresh cooked tri-tip on sale. I couldn't resist. I'm not really a tri-tip person but it smelled so good. Anyway, the guy asked me if I wanted it sliced. I did. He sliced off all the good stuff and had a slab of leftover fat and meat. I asked him if he was going to throw that away and he said yes. I asked him if I could have it without charge for my dogs. They all know me at this market and he had no problem with that. In fact, he gave me some other scraps that were going to be trashed. My dogs were in heaven. Mom did a great hunting trip :-) Funny how they like cooked much better than raw food. >> >> Laura Thomas >> >> ============================================================================ >> POST is Copyrighted 2011.
