Where to get Prime Tri-Tip in LA/SFV?
On occasion, I've gotten this from How's but since they closed the two valley locations, was hoping there might be some other options that are reasonably priced. I've seen at Gelson's for around $25 a lb, but at that price I might as well get the Kobe at Huntington farms for $17.99.
Suggestions appreciated!

I've only seen Choice Tri-Tip at Costco, and it's usually been disappointing...

Have you checked with Harvey's Guss? What about Vicente Foods meat department?

Jim's Fallbrook Meats would very likely have it.

Sometimes Costco & Hows have it, but check Harvey Guss, you must order 24 hrs in advance.

Moose...I work at a Costco meat department and we are now carrying prime tri tips on a more consistent basis. Delivery of prime beef is friday morning so Friday or saturday would be your best bet. Curently running at 7.49/lb., about 4.50/lb if you buy a cryovac of about 15 pounds.
