Smoked Skirt Steak

Recipe written by Roosevelt Lewis

Prep Time: 10 minutes to trim and rub the meat

Cook Time: 45 minutes

Serves: 4 servings

Ingredients: 

• 2 pounds skirt steak
• 2 teaspoons Créole seasoning

• Hickory wood chips, soaked in water
• Smoker
• Water

Directions: 

Preheat smoker to 280ºF.

Trim any excess fat from the surface of the steak and cut the steak in half crosswise.

Season the skirt steak with Créole seasoning 

Place skirt steak on rack.

Smoke skirt steaks for about 25 minutes for a medium-rare steak and 30 minutes for medium steak.  Off course if you like your steak more done you can cook longer. When done, take out of smoker to let rest for 10 minutes before carving. The meat will be smoked, but not overpowering.

Note: If grilling the smoked skirt steak, cook steak to a temperature of 100º – 105ºF for about 18 minutes, and then finish grilling to the internal temperature you want.

Also you can use any seasoning you want on this steak. Try using a jerk seasoning or adobo seasoning.
