Bob Correll taught me well

[Jim Lampe]

years ago, Bob Correll made (and posted) pork steaks.
i thought, oh man, those look GREAT!
butt i hate pork steaks. always dry and boring... at least, that's how i remember them.
then, he made (and posted) them again... this time i thought, i'm gonna try these.
well, i did... and they were just ok... so i sent Bob an email.
"How do i make them so they look AND taste like yours?"
to my surprise, Bob told me his (secrets). LOW AND SLOW.
So, I tried making them again, and again, and again, until i got it right and decided I can finally say
I L♥VE PORK STEAKS!!
Today, i marinated three thin steaks in Wickers for about four hours...

cleaned a few Brussel sprouts, EVOO'd and seasoned'um with some seasoned pepper from Penzey's...

tossed those in the oven at 400º while i got the pork steaks on the 26"OTG . . .

the steaks were seasoned with a pork rub from Weber's TIME TO GRILL cookbook

the kettle was hovering just over 275ºF for the entire 1+ hour cook....

these guys looked soo daggum good, i did not sauce them a'tall...
just the moistness and the porkness is all i wanted!

and we got it in these dudes.
Perfected Pork Steaks grilled the Weber Way with Professor & Chef Correll to blame!

Yessirrie, I do blame Bob for a few pounds I've added, butt then,... do i really care? Heck no!
Thanks Bob!
and Thank you for visiting!

Well, Bob is from the Show Me state and by the looks of those steaks he sure showed you,,,,,,,,,,,and me too! I've grilled many pork steaks but never would have thought to cook them entirely indirect. Thanks for posting Jim and thank you Bob for showing how it's done.

Well said, Kim. And Jim and Bob are two of our greats. But even after all this warmth and fuzziness, I'm still mad that I can't get pork steaks around here.

 

[Morgan C.]

All looks great Jim!! Love your pork steaks and I gotta try those sprouts! Yum!

 

[Gary H. NJ]

Jim and Bob, great advice about the pork steaks. Of course it makes perfect sense to low n slow them to keep 'em tender. Looks delish Mr. Lampe.

 

[Joe InJersey]

I didn't know that Bob Correll put you up tho grillin' all of those pork steaks. I thought it was just a "Lampe Thing". Always a nice job!
PS- Bummed about Dave Brubeck... I'm sure you are too.

 

[Bob Correll]

Oh geez Jim, all I did was give back some inspiration that you dish out in spades.
And you perfected the process, in spades!
Beautiful meal and pics JL!

note to Jon D, if you revisit this post.
Have your butcher cut a pork butt into slabs and bingo, pork steaks!
