Traeger Smoked Steak
Amazingly Juicy and Tender Steak cooked to perfection!
Equipment
- Traeger Pellet Smoker
- Wireless Thermometer with Stay-In Probes
- Iron Skillet (or any other pan that can withstand high oven temps)
Ingredients
- 4 Steaks New York, Tenderloin, Ribeye
- 1/4 cup Beef Seasoning
Instructions
Prep
- Preheat Smoker to 225 degrees F and load up with your preferred hardwood pellets.
- Season Steaks with chosen seasoning.
Smoke Steaks
- Once smoker is preheated, place steaks in smoker.
- If available, place probes in each steak and wait approximately 45 minutes (depending upon thickness and fatness content) to come up to temperature. For medium rare, cook to 120 degrees, as the reverse sear will bring it up to a perfect 130 degrees F. For other preferences, please google beef doneness temperatures. Remember to take the steaks off the smoker at 10 degrees below your finishing temperature as we'll be reverse searing the beef. Remove each steak as it comes to temp individually. Because we are going to broil the steaks, you can let them cool, but hopefully each steak will cook in close to the same amount of time. I usually let them sit for 10 minutes prior to putting in the broiler.
- Once the final steak is about 10 or 15 minutes from the desired temperature preheat the oven to Broil on High, and place iron skillet into oven to heat up.
Broil
- Remove iron skillet (Careful it'll be crazy hot!!!), and place on heat safe counter or cooktop.
- Place each steak on iron skillet and listen to the lovely sizzle.
- Place skillet back into oven and watch for bubbling. It'll probably take just a couple of minutes.
- Remove skillet from oven, and place on heat safe counter or cooktop, and remove steaks and place on a serving plate to avoid continued cooking.
- Let rest for 5 minutes, then serve. Enjoy!
