ST. LOUIS BARBECUED PORK STEAKS
Grilling, then braising makes these barbecued pork steaks very tender. Economical pork shoulder steaks have a lot of flavor, but can be tough. Here's a popular St. Louis way to cook them until they're fork tender, a recipe I found at a web blog. You can also prepare these in the oven. For the grill you will need an aluminum roasting pan. I consider this more a method than a "recipe", so match the seasonings to your tastes. And, the thicker the steaks, the longer they need to cook.

Steps:
- Season the steaks on all sides with the grill seasoning, garlic powder, salt and pepper, and Essence. Grill the steaks over medium high heat until done, about 15-20 minutes, flipping once halfway through.
- Reduce heat to medium. Place steaks in a large aluminum roasting pan. To the pan add equal amounts of barbecue 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.
- Cook for at least 1 1/2 - 2 hours, checking periodically to make sure the liquid hasn't evaporated. If it has, add more beer and barbecue sauce. When the steaks are tender, remove the pan from the grill and carefully plate the hot steaks. Serve with your favorite barbecue fixin's.
- 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 barbecue sauce and beer to almost cover. Cover tightly with foil and finish the pork steaks in a 250°F oven for 2 - 3 hours or until tender.

Steps:
- Note: You'll also need two 9×13 disposable aluminum roaster pans. Combine the salt, pepper and garlic in a small bowl and mix well. Season both sides of each steak liberally with the seasoning, then place them in zip-top bags and refrigerate at least three hours, or overnight. Start your grill and prepare for direct cooking over high heat (450-500ºF). Put the steaks on the hot grill and sear the steaks on each side. They don't have to be all the way done-just nicely browned on both sides. While the steaks are searing, combine the beer and barbecue sauce in a large bowl and whisk to combine. Put the steaks in a single layer into the disposable aluminum pans and cover them with the beer mixture, putting half of the beer and barbecue sauce mixture into each pan. Cover the pans tightly with foil. Move your coals to one side of the grill for indirect cooking. Put the pans on the side of the grill opposite the coals and cook, indirectly, for 90 minutes. Note: Add charcoal as needed to keep the temperature at about 350ºF throughout the rest of the cooking time. After 90 minutes remove the steaks from the pans and quickly sear them over direct heat again (about 2 minutes per side). Remove to a platter and let them rest for about five minutes. Serve and enjoy!
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of meat. Pork steaks should be cut from the shoulder or loin, and should be about 1 inch thick.
- Tenderize the meat. You can do this by pounding it with a meat mallet or marinating it in a mixture of oil, vinegar, and spices.
- Season the meat well. Pork steaks should be seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic powder at the very least. You can also add other spices, such as paprika, cumin, or chili powder.
- Cook the meat over medium heat. This will help to prevent the meat from drying out.
- Don't overcook the meat. Pork steaks should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the meat rest before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
