Smoked New York Strip
This Smoked New York Strip is one of the most delicious ways to cook this special cut of beef. Tender, juicy and a bit smoky.
You can smoke New York Strip, Porterhouse, T-bone, Delmonico, skirt steak even tenderloin or London broil. If you buy steaks be sure to buy steaks that are a minimum of 1.5 inches thick.
There is no need to flip the steaks or roast in the smoker. When you perform the reverse sear, you will want to flip the meat to brown both sides.
For 3-4 pound strip roasts smoke for 3-4 hours. Then sear for another 5-10 minutes.
For steaks, smoke for 45 minutes to one hour. Then sear for another 5 minutes.
The higher the temperature that you smoke the beef to, the more risk of the meat drying out and the less tender it will be. We suggest cooking to medium rare.

- Check the internal temperature of the meat with an instant read meat thermometer, even if your smoker is equip with a temperature probe.
- Cook time will vary depending on how well your smoker is calibrated. Keep a close eye on the temperature so that you don’t overcook it.
- If grilling meat to reverse sear, set meat directly on the grill grates.
- Even though we have listed temperatures for well done beef, we suggest cooking to medium-rare for the best outcome. If you have someone that prefers no pink in the meat, let the meat rest longer.

- After searing place meat on a cutting board and tent with aluminum foil to rest.
