St. Louis Barbequed Pork Steaks

Ingredients

• 4-6 pork shoulder steaks
• montreal grill seasoning (I use McCormick's)
• garlic powder
• kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
• Emeril's Original Essence (optional)
• super smoker's championship barbecue sauce (great sauce, not too sweet)
• light beer

Directions

1. 1

   Season the steaks on all sides with the grill seasoning, garlic powder, salt and pepper, and Essence (if using). Grill the steaks over medium high heat until done, about 15-20 minutes, flipping once halfway through.

2. 2

   Reduce heat to medium. Place steaks in a large aluminum roasting pan. To the pan add equal amounts of BBQ sauce and beer until the steaks are just about covered. Wrap the top of the pan with aluminum foil, place on the grill and close the grill cover.

3. 3

   Cook for at least 1 1/2 and up to 2 hours, checking periodically to make sure the liquid hasn't evaporated. If it has, add more beer and BBQ sauce. When the steaks are tender, remove the pan from the grill and carefully plate the hot steaks. Serve with your favorite BBQ fixin's.

4. 4

   For oven preparation, follow the preparation instructions above, then broil the steaks 6" from the heat source, turning once, until cooked through. Place steaks in a 2" deep, foil-lined baking pan, adding BBQ sauce and beer to almost cover. Cover tightly with foil and finish the pork steaks in a 250 degree oven for 2 - 2 1/2 hours or until tender.
