1 - 3 to 4 pound whole beef tri-tip roast. Inject tri-tip with Tony Chachere's Honey Bacon & BBQ Marinade. Also rub marinade all over. Smoke cook 2-3 hours to desired doneness, using 2 ounces apple wood.

• Apple Walnut BBQ Beans
• 1 cup Granny Smith apples, peeled and diced
• 1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
• 1/2 cup diced yellow onion
• 1 tbs. butter
• 1-15oz can small white beans with juice
• 3/4 cup Tony Chachere's Honey Bacon & BBQ Marinade
• 2 tbs. brown sugar
• 1/2 cup applesauce
• salt to taste
  

Sauté apples, onions, and walnuts in butter for about 2 minutes. Add beans, Tony Chachere's Honey Bacon & BBQ Marinade, brown sugar, applesauce, and salt. Simmer for 15 minutes stirring frequently.

TIP: If you can't find a tri-tip at your local supermarket, ask the butcher. He can cut one for you. It is a great cut of tender beef.
