OPERATION
TECHNIQUES:
Smoking: Less than 275°f (135°c)
This classic form of barbecue involves indirect cooking of
larger cuts of meat at low temperatures (less than 275°f
(135°c) for a relatively long time (often 4+ hours). Using
charcoal and wood chips infuses slow cooked meats and
other items with smoky barbecue flavor and yields
incredibly tender results.
Smoke Roasting: 275°f – 400°f (135°c - 205°c)
Also known as indirect grilling, this is similar setup to
smoking; smoke roasting is an accelerated version of the
same principles. It works well for more conventional roasts,
chickens and items that are frequently oven roasted. The
combination of smoke and cooking time creates great flavor
in a shorter time than true smoking.
Tips & Tricks for Smoking and Smoke Roasting:
Due to the construction of offset smokers, the side of the
cook chamber closest to the fire (right side) may be hotter
than the opposite end (left side) – building a small sacrificial
fire may help to preheat your offset smoker and promote
more even cooking.
Direct grilling: 400°F (205°C) or more
Direct – as in directly above the burning charcoal and wood
chips. This method is the traditional backyard cook-out or
barbecue. Ideal for smaller items – steaks, chops, burgers,
vegetables. The high heat sears the exterior while cooking
the interior.

The Perfect Steak Grilling Guide Ingredients
4
steaks (preferably New York Strip), 1" thick
2
cloves garlic minced or pressed
2
tbsp worcestershire sauce
2
tbsp balsamic vinegar and freshly ground pepper
2
tsp dijon mustard
2
tbsp soy sauce
2
tbsp olive oil
Preparing The Steaks
Trim excess fat from the steaks. In a heavy, resealable
plastic bag combine the remaining ingredients. Marinate
the steaks for 1 hour at room temperature or up to 24 hours
in the refrigerator. If refrigerating, bring steaks close to
room temperature 1 hour before grilling for more even
cooking.
PERFECT GRILLING TIPS
A.
Brush grids with vegetable or olive oil and preheat the
barbecue to 450oF / 275oC. Place food on the
barbecue at a 45 angle and cook according to the
timing on the cooking charts below.
B.
Turn the steak over grilling on the same 45 angle.
C. Turn the steak over and grill on the opposite 45 angle.
D. Finally, turn the steak over and grill on the same 45
angle.
