We consider how best to search for top partners in generic composite Higgs models. We begin by classifying the possible group representations carried by top partners in models with and without a custodial $SU(2)times SU(2) rtimes mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetr y protecting the rate for $Z rightarrow boverline{b}$ decays. We identify a number of minimal models whose top partners only have electric charges of $frac{1}{3}, frac{2}{3},$ or $frac{4}{3}$ and thus decay to top or bottom quarks via a single Higgs or electroweak gauge boson. We develop an inclusive search for these based on a top veto, which we find to be more effective than existing searches. Less minimal models feature light states that can be sought in final states with like-sign leptons and so we find that 2 straightforward LHC searches give a reasonable coverage of the gamut of composite Higgs models.
