Scale
- 5 pork steaks (boneless pork butt or shoulder sliced into 1 1/2” thick pieces)
- 1 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 1 tablespoon garlic paste
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 3 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 2 teaspoons fresh cracked black pepper
- 3 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon mustard powder
- 3 teaspoons onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 3 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
Instructions
- Place pork shoulder steaks onto a baking sheet and season them with Kosher salt. Place them in a refrigerator for a few hours before removing them and allowing the meat to come to room temperature.
- Preheat the smoker with the lid closed to 225°F and add your favorite wood chips.
- Whisk together the Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, and garlic paste in a metal saucepan.
- Whisk together the dry rub seasoning ingredients in a small bowl until well combined.
- Sprinkle the dry rub on each side of the pork.
- Place the pork steaks directly onto the grill grates of the smoker and place the saucepan inside the smoker, next to the steaks. Smoke the pork steaks for around 2 hours, and every 30 minutes, baste them with the saucepan liquid.
- After 2 hours, add BBQ sauce to the pork steaks with a silicone brush. Smoke for 15 minutes, then flip and brush bbq sauce on again. Smoke for 30 more minutes, or until the internal temp has reached 145°F.
- Remove the pork steaks and allow them to rest for at least 10 minutes before serving with your favorite sides!
