Grilled Pork Steak Ingredients
Pork Steaks
- boneless pork steaks
Although you can use bone-in pork shoulder steaks, they may take longer to cook. Bone-in pork steaks may also be larger than boneless, and therefore may feed more people. I recommend boneless for uniform results.
Pork Steak Marinade
- olive oil
- soy sauce
- honey
- lemon zest
- lemon juice
- black pepper
- sea salt
- fresh garlic cloves
How to Cook Pork Steak
- Whisk olive oil, soy sauce, honey, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a bowl until the honey dissolves. Add salt, pepper, and minced garlic, mix, then set aside ¼ cup of the marinade and pour the rest into a zip-lock bag.
- After setting some marinade aside, add the pork steaks to the bag and marinate for at least 1 hour at room temperature or in the refrigerator overnight.
- Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork steaks.
- Sear for 2 minutes. Flip, baste with the reserved marinade, and repeat until the steaks have cooked for 10-12 minutes total.
- Remove from the grill and allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Pork Steak Recipes Tips
- You can grill pork steaks on an outside gas or charcoal grill or in a grill pan on the stove, making this a great choice for a year-round recipe.
- Marinate for at least 1 hour, but overnight in the refrigerator is even better! I love to pop these pork steaks in the fridge the day before making them for a tender, easy dinner with amazing flavor.
- Let your pork steaks rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing for best results.
- Always slice against the grain of meat for the most tender cuts.
- Thinly sliced pork steak tends to be even more tender than more thickly sliced pork. Try slicing thinly for best results!
FAQ for Pork Shoulder Steaks
Grill pork steaks for a total of 10-12 minutes over medium-high heat, flipping as necessary. The internal temperature should reach at least 145°F on a meat thermometer. Use my pork temperature chart for best results.
Grilled pork steaks can be served a variety of ways: over rice with a sauce, with grilled potatoes and a salad, with your favorite BBQ sauce and sides, or even as meat for fajitas with sliced sauteed peppers. Like pork chops, they pair well with practically everything!
