Ribeye Steak on the Grilla Grills Silverbac
A ribeye is staple when it comes to steaks, full of marbling and flavor!
For this cook we really wanted to showcase the versiltility of a pellet grill and the processes I use to sear a steak a on pellet grill.
To start we took a couple of choice grade ribeyes. Season them to your liking and let them rest on the counter for about an hour.
Then we fired up the pellet grill. You will definitely need a set of Grill Grates to really get the full potential of your pellet grill. Now of course you can try this recipe on any grill with great results.
Using the infrared thermometer you adjust you pellet grill temp until you achieve at least 600 degree grates. The Grilla Grills Silverbac can easily do this with the temp set at 485 degrees.
While the grill is coming up to temp I made the "Stone Ground Mustard Butter". Take a small sauce pan and combine the following ingredients.
Stone Ground Mustard Butter
* 1 Stick of Butter
* 1 Tablespoon of Black Pepper
* 1 1/2 Tablespoon of Stone Ground Mustard
* Juice of 1/2 Lemon
Simmer the ingredients for 1 minute. Place the leaves of 2 stems of Rosemary in a strainer and pour the hot butter over the Rosemary.
NOW IT'S TIME TO COOK SOME STEAKS!!!!
The cook is pretty straight forward. You are going to place the steaks on those 600 Degree Grill Grates for 2 minutes. Give them a twist for those perfect marks. After another 2 minutes its time to flip. Go another 2 minutes and twist again. Thats when I like to start checking the temp. I was shooting for 125-127 for that perfect Medium Rare. Of course you can adjust your finish temp to your liking.
***GOOD TIP*** If you have thicker steaks that aren't getting done in a total of 8 minutes, place them on a raised rack or your top shelf to get them off of the Grill Grates. This will keep from burning the one side waiting on them to get done. Plus raising the steak to a higher rack will allow the steak to cook more evenly.
Once the steaks are done let them rest. While resting, drizzle the Stone Ground Mustard Butter over them. This butter has an awesome flavor and goes great with any cut of beef. You will not be disappointed!!
After a few minute rest, its time to EAT!!
Grill Grates turn a pellet grill into a steak cooking machine!!

Every cooking video should be like this. Clear, concise, and specific with times and temps. Very helpful for someone like me who knows nothing about grilling.

[@JiisTube]

Straight to the point, clear and informative, recap at the end. Excellent work, thank you!

[@stonetheforbidden]

"I'm not gonna lie, I'm ready to try one of these!" I appreciate your honesty

[@CamoDC4L]

I have always reversed seared my steaks on my pit boss. Cook them at 225 until they reach 110 then pull them off. Crank up the heat to max and open up the fire box and give them the nice sear marks and pull at 130. Come out perfect every time

[@optimisticprime809]

This is the way

[@CamoDC4L]

@@optimisticprime809 not to toot my own horn but my family rarely ever goes out to a restaurant when we want steak anymore. If we want a good steak I can do it on my back deck with a beer in my hand and way cheaper!

[@randallhunter3912]

How long did you have to cook them at that low of a temp though?

[@CamoDC4L]

@@randallhunter3912 doesn’t take very long for them to get up to 110 degrees. Then when the smoker is set at 500 for the finishing process it only takes like 5 min to bring them up to 130

[@markduncan5314]

This was great thanks, had the Grill at 450f (grates were 600ish) and did 4 x 90secs rotation and took them off at 125f temp and they were amazing. Rested for about 10-15mins whilst I made a salad and baby potatoes and it was great.

I agree that those looked amazing and I would give a 10 on the score card for doneness and appearance. I would however be hard pressed that you could NOT tell the difference between these on an easy bake and ones on charcoal. Excellent short video. thanks for making it! I am going to try that butter

[@SwineLifeBBQ]

Thanks! The butter is awesome! As far as the taste goes, its a tough call. For a hot and fast cook its hard for me to tell a difference. But a longer cook over coals or a reverse sear, I could definitely see where you could taste the difference. It's hard to be a steak over coals thats for sure! Plus the grill grates that I have been cooking on are very well seasoned LOL.. I appreciate the feedback and let us know how you like the butter!!

[@allanweiler3164]

Wow - I never would have believed you could get grill marks like that using a pellet grill if I hadn't seen you make them. Quick question: how did you get the grates to heat to over 600F with the controller set at only 485?

[@SwineLifeBBQ]

That’s the benefit to grill grates. They absorb more if the heat and radiate it better. Plus the controller is only measuring air temp bit surface temp.

That works great as well. That’s what We like to do with the thicker steaks. Thanks!!

[@cheetor5923]

@@SwineLifeBBQ Have too agree.. a little bit of smoke first works really well. When I have a long holiday and lots of time (and a VERY thick steak) I tend to dry brine for 24 hours, cold smoke with hickory... vac bag and cook sous vide (this managed to get that smokey flavor right into the very core of the meat), let rest for about 15 minutes... then sear over super hot mangrove charcoal right on top of a chimney starter that is roaring hot for about 30 - 50 seconds per side.. absolute perfection...

[@timmorgan2093]

I do this exact same technique as well. Cold smoke for about 40 minutes, sous vide, then sear it off at the end. Sous vide really makes the steaks tender, it’s definitely the way to go!

Not when it comes to pellet grills...the indirect heat of a smoker doesn't allow the fat to render the same as on a direct heat gas or charcoal grill. If you are using a smoker it is best to get that excess fat cut off...unless you like smoked unrendered hunks of fat.

[@traegs8361]
