Polish Pork Neck Steaks Grilled to Perfection

Introduction

Polish Pork Neck Steaks are a mouthwatering dish that combines bold seasoning with a perfect sear. Using the Arteflame grill, we lock in the juices by searing the steaks on the center grill grate at a blistering 1,000F. Once seared, they are moved onto the flat cooktop for gentle cooking to the perfect doneness. Pair these tender, flavorful steaks with mustard and fresh bread for an authentic Polish experience.

Ingredients

• 4 pork neck steaks
• 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp paprika
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 tbsp melted butter
• 1 tbsp vinegar
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp dried marjoram
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil (for lighting the grill)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Grill

1. Pour vegetable oil on three paper napkins.
2. Place the soaked napkins in the center of the Arteflame grill.
3. Stack firewood over the napkins.
4. Light the napkins and allow the grill to heat up for about 20 minutes.

Step 2: Marinate the Steaks

1. In a bowl, mix Dijon mustard, garlic, paprika, black pepper, salt, melted butter, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and dried marjoram.
2. Coat the pork neck steaks with the marinade and let them rest for 15 minutes.

Step 3: Sear the Steaks

1. Place the steaks on the center grill grate and sear for 1-2 minutes per side at 1,000F.
2. Once seared, move steaks to the flat cooktop to finish cooking.

Step 4: Cook to Perfection

1. Continue cooking the steaks on the flat cooktop, adjusting their position for optimal heat.
2. Remove from the grill when the internal temperature is 15F below the target temp.
3. Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips

• Always let the grill heat properly for the best sear and even cooking.
• Use butter instead of oil for grilling—it enhances the flavor.
• Use a meat thermometer to get the perfect level of doneness.

Variations

1. Garlic Herb: Add fresh rosemary and thyme to the marinade for extra aromatic flavor.
2. Spicy Kick: Include red pepper flakes and cayenne for a spicy touch.
3. Smoky BBQ: Replace Worcestershire sauce with liquid smoke and BBQ seasoning.
4. Citrus Zing: Add lemon zest and a splash of orange juice for a tangy twist.
5. Honey Mustard: Mix honey with mustard for a slightly sweet and tangy profile.
