Winning Competition Steak on a Pellet Smoker!?

I was invited to my first steak competition here in Helotes, TX and I am HOOKED!
It was such a cool experience...so I am recreating a winning recipe that will make sure you get to walk the stage when it comes to SCA.
Traditionally, most will do these cooks on a charcoal grill but I'm putting my favorite pellet smoker to the test to see if it can get the job done.
I go over all the tools needed to get the job done.

Main notes:
The idea temp the Grill Grates have to be at is 600 degrees.
By layering the rubs and seasonings, there is so much flavor going on with each bite, it will make your steak stand out from the rest.
Remember: You get 1 bite to impress the judge...make sure it counts!

You nailed it! That is basically the exact way 2 of the top 10 cookers in 2023 do their steaks. I say get a grill grate for the portable Pit Boss and hit the SCA trail.

i done Competition Steaks in the 80s. boy have things change a lot. nice job. sarge. you do the best videos ..

[@GrillSergeant]

No joke, I would love for you to put out a video on how you did it in the 80s to see how much things have changed!

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

@@GrillSergeant not a bad idea

[@GrillSergeant]

@@ScottysBackYardBBQ If you do, tag me in it! I would honestly love to see the evolution of the craft.

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

Ok i will. We had to draw a number. Then go in and pick a steak. We wasaloud to bring own. And we made our own rub.​@@GrillSergeant

Awesome stuff Andrew, definitely worthy of an award 🥇! Well explained and looked fantastic. Cheers brother 🍺

[@grillyeah]

Oh Hell Yeah brother! Love my grill grates... except cleaning them lol

[@TheAmericanSmoke]

I really enjoyed this video and I learned a lot! Thanks for making it. Beautiful steak! Smoke on!!!

[@lancedean5987]

Great beer choice, you can’t go wrong with anything from New Belgium Brewing’s VooDoo Ranger series, and that Tropic Force is a good one!

[@GrillSergeant]

Right!? What’s funny is I filmed a taste test but felt the video was going to be too long to include it. But yes, the new Tropic Force is crazy good!

[@lonestarsmoked]

That definitely had a comp feel to the video. I seriously am going to try this steak process.

[@GrillSergeant]

Your taste buds will thank you! 🍻 When you win the competition, make sure you give me a shout out. 😂

[@EricG85]

Always a great job.

[@Dave_Force]

Love your videos! Keep up the good work.

[@GrillSergeant]

Thanks man! 🍻

[@brokenbonesbbq33]

Your disqualified 😂

[@billyrogers8384]

Could you eat the entire steak with all of the seasonings. Or is it just a one bite wonderful?

[@GrillSergeant]

Great question! There is a lot of flavor going on so that one bite by itself is magical. That being said, if I was hungry enough I could finish the steak but definitely worth sharing with the family. Yesterday we hosted a Super Bowl party and among wings and poppers I did two of these steaks and it paired well eating along side all the game day appetizers.

I know the economy is bad but $1500 for a steak? 😂looks tasty.

[@GrillSergeant]

For reals tho. 😂 🍻
