Minor adjustments: beef stock (no salt added) instead of water, triple the garlic, used fresh (1/3 added near the end), a pinch of sugar. Cut tri-tip into smaller pieces as I got a late start. Seared meat in hot skillet after seasoning with salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder. Caramelized onions and mushrooms in same skillet and then added to crock pot. Added a couple of mini carrots to flavor the broth and they were like candy... gone in an instant and we fought over them! Reduced broth. Served meat on toasted Dutch Crunch rolls with Italian Blend (6 cheeses) melted on top.
S.O. asked how many stars he was allowed to give it and then said... ok... I give it 6 stars!
