The Coulotte and the Tri-Tip are smaller roasts, there are only one of each in a half of beef. Therefore we will randomly place one or the other in each quarter. The Coulotte is a famous Brazilian cut, known as Picanha. It is a great smoking roast that is similar to a Tri-Tip roast and is a 4-6 hour cook time (vs. 12 hours with a Brisket).
