One Pork Steak for Two People

[Bob Correll]

Weighing in at a little over a pound, dry brined for 5 hours, patted dry, seasoned with Mrs Dash Table Blend and garlic powder.



Two hours of hickory smoke at around 265°, then direct, flipping often, shooting for 185° the temp ThermoBlog says is the perfect temp for pork steaks. First time I've ever kept track of a pork steak.



At 185° I applied the sauce and let it go for a few more minutes.



Sided with baked beans and potato salad.
Here's your bite:



I've been doing well, and feeling well. It hit 69° today with sunshine, a great day to do it the Weber Way!!

Looks great, was 185 the perfect pork steak temp?

 

[Brenda T]

[Jim Lampe]

It looks delicious. Always looking for another way to do pork steaks. My wife likes hers very tender. How tender was it?

was 185 the perfect pork steak temp?

How tender was it?

Thanks everyone!

Tenderness was ok, not super tender though. Maybe if I would have had the time to keep slow cooking it to 185, but I got to that temp going direct after 2 hours indirect.
It's still hard to beat a covered sauce bath for tenderness.

When I resently did Reverse Sear Pork Steaks I felt the same way, I am going back to a sear and sauce bath next time also.
