How to cook the perfect steak on a Pit Boss pellet grill

Brother, thank you. A fellow in another video sears the steak first at high heat, and then smokes it. I followed your advice instead and smoked it first, until the probe said the internal temperature had reached around 119 degrees. This took around 35 minutes at 180 degrees. I then removed it, and then programmed 400 degrees into the Pit Boss 850 Pro, and waited around ten minutes for the temperature to rise close to 400 degrees. I put the steak back on above the flames that come through when you open the sear plate, searing each side for around 5 minutes. Everyone in the family said it was delicious and I fully agree, one of the best I have ever eaten. Even though the instruction book says some chefs like to smoke after searing, like the fellow in the other video, I am so glad I followed your path. The steak was so juicy and tender. Wow!!

[@dailyDIYdude]

Hey sir I’m so glad it turned out good. This is definitely one of the best methods to smoke a steak. Smoke on 💪🏼

My wife just bought me a Pitboss today for my birthday/father’s day present. I’m using your video to try to cook a couple of ribeyes. Thank you for your help my friend. God bless

[@dailyDIYdude]

I appreciate you watching bud. Hope you enjoy your new pellet grill. You’ll definitely love this method of cooking a steak. Try using some royal oak charcoal pellets. Mix them 50/50 with some hickory. 👌🏼

[@outlaw.prather]

@@dailyDIYdude I’ll have to try it next time. The steaks were delicious. Only problem that I had was they turned out Medium, and I like mine medium/rare. I’ll have to figure out how to make the adjustment’s that I need

[@dailyDIYdude]

I really appreciate the comment. This grill is the real deal man. I hadn't even tried a good cut of steak yet. That NY Strip was awesome.

[@philipbrown8574]

I like what your doing with different sides for different temps( genius) So when you mentioned about the pellets not dropping and the auger wasn’t feeding the pellets is because of long pellets causing a bridge at the hole causing a blockage and it is literally because of longer pellets so keep that in mind The same exact thing happens if you buy the wrong pellets for your pellet stove Keep up the good cooking

[@g-paj5430]

Great video! I picked up my PB1600 (Big Bertha) last weekend and cooked my first Brisket. Turned out great! Next will be stakes this week followed by spareribs this coming Saturday. Sunday will be bacon and eggs. 😁 Looking forward to more videos Mike!

[@Excalibur2]

Lmao that eye roll near the end! I was going to say, her temp is around well done, and it hasn't even rested yet, but if she likes it well done, what can you do? I used to only eat any meat well done because that's how my mother always prepared it. I used to not like chicken, but properly cooked chicken is like an entirely different food, it's just so good.

[@gingy1799]

Steak looks awesome. I’m not sure about this grill specifically, because it does have 14 gauge steel if I remember correctly, but I had a grill start melting part of my siding because the back of it was just a little too close to the house. Just a warning!

[@dailyDIYdude]

Thanks for the heads up on the heat Gingy. I try and keep a good eye on it. I myself had a grill do that to my siding years ago. Not fun

[@user-et3kk4tn4s]

So this seems better than the traeger since you can sear on it? also better to hotdogs and hamburgers for group things.

[@dailyDIYdude]

Well I wouldn’t say the best for hotdogs and hamburgers but I’ve never tried them. I have a blackstone for that stuff. I’m sure you can do it on the PitBoss though.

it does look good.....but lose the rubber glove..LOL Heres How I do Mine...and by the way....a Porterhouse or a rib eye will give you much more flavor. NY strip is a touch too lean.. I use a Gas grill...a weber....warm it to 500f. I prep the meat with salt-pepper and Liberal amounts of Montreal steak seasoning. For me, i like medium rare....red, but not leaking 2.....2.5 min a side Nobody ever gives me bad comments, matter of fact most say its the best they ever had. thats got to be TTTF...and your turf is outstanding.

[@ricofernandez3338]

Have to say I doubted this method but boy was I wrong. 45 minutes of smoke at 225 than searing at 400 for 2.5minutes on both sides. Used a salt and pepper blend. Steaks were amazing. Topped it off with unsalted butter. I let my steaks sit out the fridge for 6hrs before cooking.

Steak looked amazing! Did you also sear your steak for ~2 min each side? Also, what was the final internal temp on your steak? It looked like the thermometer was reading 113? Keep up the videos!

[@dailyDIYdude]

Hey Charles thanks for watching. You want to pull the steaks off the PitBoss at 130 degrees. Then sear them a couple mins on each side to reach a final internal temp of 135-140.

[@spiderkidj7479]

@@dailyDIYdude why did you pull yours off at 110 if you said 130

[@dailyDIYdude]

130 Was my final temp after sear. Sorry for late response.

[@bobgarcia1781]

nice video my friend. I am really on the fence about these. Mainly because of the time factor. You mentioned the propane question before and I like to get to it. How long did you bake the steaks for and how long did it take before it got to that temp? Also what degree did you sear the steaks and how long did it take to get to that temp? I really like these grills and the sear option. But the propane just seems like an easier option. Any advice will help and thanks again for the video bud.

[@dailyDIYdude]

Hey Bob thanks for watching. The big difference using Pellets vs gas is the flavor of the food when finished cooking. It’s a great investment in my opinion. I like to bring the temp of the steaks up slow. I smoke them at 180 degrees till I achieve the temp I’m looking for. Generally takes about 45 mins. Then you pull the steaks and crank the heat up to 500 to sear them. I genuinely sear them for a few mins on each side. Let them rest for about to mins. Hope that helps

All kinds of different ways to cook but, IMO a steak of that size is cooked at high temp for less time (high and fast). Sear 4 min or so per side and rest for at least 8 min and its ready to eat. larger meats like brisket and tri-tip are low and slow

[@dailyDIYdude]

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah I never usually cook thin steaks low and slow. I do now though. Gives them a really nice smoky taste and still crazy juicy. Definitely Ottawa sear them in the end though. Give it a shot.
