Hi all, I shot this video while playing around with the A-Maze-N-Tube-Smoker. I did a combination of cold smoke & hot smoke using it in my Yoder YS640. I thought I would try it on some flat iron steaks I picked up and aged for a week in the fridge. Nothing fancy just applied some garlic powder, Obe Cues BBQ Bomber Rub & Bean seasoning and some Mrs. Dash Steak seasoning. All low sodium. By the way, the Obe Cues BBQ Bomber Rub & Bean Seasoning is another tasty rub.
Once the steaks were rubbed down, seasoned and rested in the firdge a while, I placed them on the YS640 without turning it on. I filled the A-Maze-N-Tube-Smoker and lit the thing with a propane torch. Easy lighting and from there I laid it in the pit with the steaks for two hours turning them once after the first hour. After 2 hours of smoke the pit reached a max temp of 95 degrees on a 70 degree day. Not bad... I then pulled the meat and set the pit up in direct grilling mode and turned it on and let it reach 550 degrees. I wanted char grilled steaks not just grill marks. If you wish just marks 450 on the Yoder’s will do the trick when using grillgrates. I sautéed up some red onion & green pepper to boot. When the steaks were turned I mopped them with a mix of garlic powder, butter, Thyme, Rosemary and a bit of Mad Hunky.
I topped the steaks with the sautéed onions and green peppers and on this a nice portion of Swiss cheese.
Nice job Todd! I believe the A-Maze-N-Tube-Smoker is the best bang for the buck in BBQ these days.
These steaks were to die for. Smokey, savory and extremely juicy. Hell See for yourself.
Damn that's some good beef!
Love the cold smoke then high heat on steaks. Sometime maybe give a try to cold smoking some filets then doing those babies up Pittsburgh/blackened rare.
Ran outta points for the day so guess I'll just have to leave you with "I sure wish I could take a bite out of your meat" innuendo points
Excellent Sir! Not using a Yoder but I believe I can do pretty much the same on my kettle, or even the gas grill. Kudos to Todd for the new smoker and to you my friend for the great video.
