Show me Pork Steaks

How to make Show me Pork Steaks Recipe - from Jeff Fitter, Catering Company and BBQ Competition Team

Serves: 4–6

Ingredients:
4–6 pork steaks, 1 inch thick (18–20 oz.)
Jeff’s St. Louis-style Rub (see below)
Cherry wood
Pecan wood
Barbecue sauce

Jeff’s St. Louis-style Rub Ingredients:
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
1/3 cup celery salt
1/3 cup black pepper
1/3 cup garlic powder
1/3 cup dry mustard
1/3 cup onion powder
1 tbsp cayenne pepper

Method:
Mix all the ingredients for Jeff’s St. Louis-Style Rub together in a bowl and then set aside.

Rub each side of the pork steaks until all pork steaks are rubbed. Then leave on tray or wrapped and store in refrigerator or cooler for not more than 12 hours but at least 3 hours to let that flavor settle in.

Bring smoker up to 250 degrees F and have your smoking wood ready.

Place the pork steaks on the smoker, add your smoking wood, and close the lid (or door). Remember, if you’re looking, they ain’t cooking!

Cook time may vary (depending on smoker used). At about 5 1/2 hours of cooking or 190 degrees F internal temperature, take the pork steaks out of the smoker and apply your favorite sauce to both sides. Place them back in the smoker and let them finish for 30 minutes. A good indication that the pork steaks are done is to cut through it with a fork, if the pork steak is tough, just cook longer.

Notes:
If a smoker is not available, use the two-zone indirect heat method. Use wood chunks for this setup.
