Instructions

  1. For the Pork Steaks: Preheat one side of your grill to medium heat so that the entire grill is heated to 225° F when the lid is closed.
  2. Season both sides of the pork steaks with onion granules, garlic granules, dry oregano, salt and pepper.
  3. Add the seasoned pork steaks to the other side of the grill where there is no direct heat underneath and cook for 90-120 minutes or until they reach 160° to 163° internally.
  4. Remove the pork steaks and turn the entire grill to high heat (550° to 600° F).
  5. Once the grill is hot, add the steaks back on and sear for 2 to 3 minutes or until grill marks are formed.
  6. Turn the steaks over, immediately baste them with BBQ sauce and sear for a further 1 to 2 minutes.
  7. Remove the pork steaks and let them sit for 5 minutes before saucing and serving.
  8. BBQ Sauce: While the steaks are cooking at 225°, is when you make the optional homemade BBQ sauce.
  9. Add all the ingredients to a medium-size saucepot.
  10. Whisk together the sauce and bring it to a boil over high heat.
  11. Simmer on low heat for 10 minutes. Store, or use it up.

Notes

  • Make-Ahead: Pork steaks are meant to be eaten immediately; However, you can keep these in a grill-proof pan with an extra 1 cup of BBQ sauce at low temperatures of 200° to 225° F for up to 1 hour before serving. They can start to turn tough if you let them sit for too long.
  • How to Store: Cover and keep them in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. These will freeze well covered for up to 3 months. Thaw them in the refrigerator for 1 day before reheating.
  • How to Reheat: Add the desired number of pork steaks to a sheet tray lined with parchment paper and bake in the oven at 350° F for 8-12 minutes or until hot.
  • Feel free to use your favorite BBQ Sauce on these pork steaks.
  • This recipe will work on a gas grill, smoker, or charcoal grill.
