Why you’ll love this recipe
With high beef prices today this is a great way to feed the masses or just yourself and get that satisfying feeling! The smoky flavor
This was inspired by my smoked tri tip recipe that I know you’ll love. You can also use this recipe for many other cuts of meat including strip steak, beef roast, filet mignon.
I will discuss how to put together the best steak seasoning, the desired temperature, and the best cooking method I use.
Ingredients
Below you will see a clear list of ingredients to use for the best results! This is for a 2 pound sirloin.
- 2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil
- 2 Tablespoons of Honey
- 1 Tablespoon Kosher Salt
- 1 Tablespoon Black Pepper
- 1 Tablespoon Onion Powder
- 2 Tablespoon Paprika
- 2 Tablespoons of Rosemary
- 2 Tablespoons of minced garlic
See the recipe card below for instructions.
Substitutions
- Smoked paprika– instead of regular paprika I like smoked!
- Garlic – Instead of minced garlic use a few cloves.
- Vegetarian – Beef steak can be replaced with chewing on a tree.
Instructions
Lets get the rub on!
This is a two pound steak. I like to start out scoring the meat. So the smoke flavor really hits home! In the thickest part registers I go a little deeper.
Get the olive oil and brush it on all sides. You then take the seasoning and sprinkle evenly and rub into the meat.
Take your minced garlic and rub evenly across all sides. The last of the seasoning place the rosemary evenly.
Hint: Let the smoker run for 4-5 minutes to burn off any remnants, then clean it. I like to use this Traeger grill brush for cleaning the smoker.
Storage
Store the meat in the fridge after cooking it should last 2-3 days.
These ingredients stand up well to freezing.
Top tip
Make sure to rub the ingredients in well. Do not over-smoke the meat 130-135 degrees will give a nice medium rare steak!
