Taco Tuesday Blackened Steak Tacos because we love tacos just about any way they are made. I have been craving tacos and had some beautiful sirloins from \u201cTexas Steak Warehouse\u201d.<\/a> The beginning of a love story.<\/p>\n I wanted these to be special. So, I made a Smokey Creamy Jalapeno Sauce.<\/a> It is a light green sauce that you see on almost every food truck or taco stand just for these tacos. Then, I rubbed my steak<\/a> with a blackening seasoning and even more black pepper. Grilled some sweet onions and the rest is delicious history.<\/p>\nLink<\/strong> <\/em>for : Smokey Creamy Jalapeno Sauce<\/a>\n Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It\u2019s our date night. We usually put something special on one of our Grills or Smokers, but sometimes we cook inside. We always eat outside on our patio where it is very comfortable with a rainforest theme.\u00a0 Wood Pellet Patio Heater, little lights, candles, lanterns and surround sound. We enjoy a little wine, or strawberry margaritas using frozen strawberries for ice, good food, music and sometimes a dance or two\u2026<\/p>\n Prep Time: 5 minutes\nCook Time: 7 minutes preside @ 500* (260c)\nGrill: Gas\nPellets: BBQPelletsOnline (in smoke box)<\/a><\/p>\n First you need a grill that\u2019s burners go front to back.<\/p>\n You need to be able to control the burners, by shutting off some of the burners while at the same time be able to control the temperature on other burners. I always light the left burner and turn off the rest. But it doesn\u2019t matter if you use the left or right burner. You need at least 3 burners with 4 being even better.<\/p>\n You need some kind of oven thermometer so you can see the temperature of the meat at\/on your grill grate. Your hood thermometer won\u2019t help, you don\u2019t care the temp is up there, but you need to know what it is where the meat is.<\/p>\n Then you need a \u201cSmoke Box<\/a>\u201d and the \u201cWedgie<\/a>\u201d is a good one. The cool thing about using the \u201cWedgie<\/a>\u201d is that https:\/\/bbqpelletsonline.com\/<\/a> sells 1, 3 and 10 pound bags of pellets so you don\u2019t have to buy a big bag that will last a year and makes it easy to mix and match pellets for the smoke flavor you want. They have over 21 different pellets!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Season your steak<\/a> to taste, I seasoned my onion slabs the same way and put a pat of butter on them.<\/p>\n Preheat your Grill Grates<\/a> to about 500* (260c) for a hot sear. Light your wedgie<\/a> now for that \u201cKiss of Smoke<\/a>\u201d.<\/p>\n Place the steaks<\/a> and onions on at the same time. Flip the steaks and onions around 7 minutes. I gave them a quarter turn around 3 minutes for those nice \u201cFlavor Bars\u201d. After you flip the steak and onions place a pat of butter on them. The butter is just magic on the grill and is a natural tenderizer (not that you need a tenderizer here).<\/p>\n Use \u201cTime\u201d as a guideline as every piece of meat is different and cooking times will vary a bit. I go by temperature. You are looking for 125* (52c) for a rare steak.<\/p>\n Let the steak<\/a> rest to reabsorb its juices before slicing. Then slice across the grain into thin slices, slice the onions and you are ready to build your tacos.<\/p>\n I topped them with Queso sauce with Hatch Chilies<\/a> from Texas Lone Star Tamales<\/a>. They have a very good Queso sauce. Then my new \u201cSmokey Creamy Jalapeno Sauce\u201d.<\/a><\/p>\n When the meat reaches an internal temperature around 125* (52c) pull it off, cover it and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. U.S.D.A. safe is 125 (52c). Keep in mind that the meat will continue cooking for another 5 to 10 degrees after you pull it off the grill. I use a Maverick ProTemp Instant Read Thermometer for checking meat temps.<\/p>\n \nNote:<\/em><\/strong> I get a lot of questions about the kind of pellets you can use with a recipe. Keep in mind that a recipe is just an outline. Some you need to follow closely like when you are making bread, but most you can do anything you can dream, our favorite way to cook. Feel free to mix and match the pellets until you find a combination you really like. Also, you are only smoking at temps less than 250 degrees (122c), anything higher is cooking and there will not be much if any smoke so it does not matter what kind of pellet you are using.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n We do our recipes on our patio where we have a lineup of grills, including Monument, Green Mountain, Uuni Wood Fired Pizza Oven, Sawtooth, Louisiana, Royall, Memphis, Traeger pellet grills, Char Griller side box smoker, Saber, Charmglow, Char-Broil, The Big Easy, Lodge Sportsman\u2019s, Brinkman and Weber. I call it our \u201cWall of Grill\u201d. Our grilling styles are healthy and low fat and will fit pelletheads, gas, natural wood and even charcoal purists. Almost any of our recipes can be done on any kind of good BBQ.<\/span><\/p>\n The important thing to keep in mind is TIME & TEMPERATURE. You can do our recipes on any grill, even some of them in the oven or crock pot, but, then you lose all the flavors you get from cooking outdoors. But sometimes it does rain.<\/span><\/p>\n Remember that a recipe is simply an outline; it is not written in stone. Don\u2019t be afraid to make changes to suit your taste. Take it and run with it\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n Live your Passion and Do What You Love,<\/span>\nKen & Patti<\/span><\/p>\nCheck Out All of Our Cookbooks<\/a><\/em>\nThey are \u201cHow To\u201d BBQ Picture Books<\/a><\/em><\/h3>\n
