Equipment

  • pellet grill
  • Hardwood chips
  • Mixing bowl
  • Sharp knife
  • Meat thermometer
  • Tin foil
  • Whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb T-bone steaks
  • 1 tbsp Kosher salt
  • 1 tbsp Black pepper
  • 1 tbsp Vegetable Oil
  • 3 tbsp BBQ rub I used Post BBQ rub
  • 1/3 cup Butter

Instructions
 

Step 1: Preparing the Steak and Pellet Grill

  • Prep the T-bone by coating it liberally with coarse salt and let stand for an hour.
  • Then coat with mad cow beef rub from Postal BBQ & let stand for 30 minutes to allow the rub to penetrate the steak.
  • Load the pellets, prime, and set the smoker to 225°F with the super smoke setting on.
  • Take the butter out of the fridge and let it melt in a bowl.

Step 2: How to Smoke The T-Bone Steak

  • Take the room temperature T-bone steaks and shake off any excess salt.
  • Put the steaks on indirect heat with the fattier New York strip side facing towards direct heat.
  • Insert temperature probe, set it for 125°F for medium rare (see the table in the notes below for doneness temperatures, and monitor.  If you don't plan on searing your steak let it cook until 130°F
  • Base with a pat of butter every 30 mins and turn over the T-bone steaks after 1 hour to ensure even grill marks.

Step 3: How to Sear T-Bone Steaks

  • Preheat the Blackstone griddle to high then sear the steak for 90 seconds per side. The steaks are also seared with the 2 ahi tuna steak.

Step 4: Rest and Serve The Steak

  • Remove the steaks when the meat probe reads 130F, cover with foil, and rest for 20 minutes.
