Pork Shoulder Blade Steak ??

[JckDanls 07]

OK Guys/Gals (and anything else you indentify as) ...

Couple packs of small shoulder blade steaks... What's the general consensus on IT... 145 or 195/200 degrees ??

Sharpie is to show size... About 1 1/2 inches thick

I smoke them both ways at times. Shoulder can have a bit of a chew to it if taken to 145 150 still good though. Most generally I treat them like CSR and go to at least 190 but probe tender sometimes is my favorite.

This is the way!

I personally love pork steaks… way underrated cut and so flavor packed. If smoked like a pork butt at lower temps… really an amazing cut. I agree with the last of Eric’s statement and Jim. SmokinEdge and JLeonard

Love taking them to probe tender… low smoke renders the fat and they are seriously so tasty! One of my favs to smoke!

^^^^Another vote for probe tender.
Like pork steaks, I would go to 195 or so.

I go for the bend test if saucing .

And char that fatty edge ,,

I just grill mine and likely to a temp of around 145. I like them with a little chew like a beef steak, not looking for fall apart tender on mine.

And what do y'all think for time wise when going to probe tender ??

I usually go about 2 to 3 hours at grilling temps . I do a back and forth between direct , indirect using a Weber kettle .
I look for the bone in ones to shrink back from the bone .

I treat them the same as a Boston butt. Cook it till probe tender. Be a good workout chewing it. otherwise.

Does a 24 ounce can count as one beer or two?

One, just like we'd tell our wives!
