INGREDIENTS

  • 1-8 top sirloin steaks

  • Lemon juice, about 1/2 lemon per pound of steak

  • Beef & Game Pit Rub, about 3 tsp per pound of steak

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the steaks, a liberal amount of Beef & Game Pit Rub and enough lemon juice to sufficiently marinate the meat.

  2. Seal the bag and refrigerate at least an hour, or as long as 24 hours to allow the steaks to marinate.

  3. Light your Pit Barrel® according to instructions and install the grill grate .

  4. Remove the steaks from the marinade, pat dry with paper towels and apply a light coat of Beef & Game Pit Rub to both sides of each steak. Tip: Using tongs and a paper towel, apply a coat of olive oil to grill grate prior to cooking to prevent sticking.

  5. Place the steaks on the grill grate and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the steak reaches the appropriate internal temperature for your desired doneness (125° for medium-rare). Tips: To help nail the perfect temperature each time we recommend the outstanding thermometers from ThermoWorks .

  6. Depending on the desired sear, you can cook with the lid completely on, cracked, or completely off. Note that more airflow will increase the heat and require less cooking time.

  7. Remove the steaks from the Pit Barrel® and let rest for 10 minutes.
