I'm not talking shoulder steaks, I'm talking about those cut from the shoulder end of the loin roast; the ones with the little curved bone on the edge. These cook more like pork chops; they get grilled.
So, I rubbed them with a generic rub; this is the rub that I made by mixing together all the partial bottles of pork and rib rubs. It's kind of garlicky, a little sweet, a little paprika-y, and a bit salty and peppery. Sounds pretty good, doesn't it? It is!
I grilled them on the BGE, using the GrillGrates, which really rock on a kamado. GrillGrates is a tool that solves a lot of kamado issues. You can skip a lot of the other work-arounds for getting direct heat and just get GrillGrates.
When they are done, I fill a sauce pot with barbecue sauce and simmer them for about an hour. I do this because it's how my mom did them. And, it tastes really good, they come out fork-tender, but still have all that grilled pork chop goodness! Following a theme, I had several half full bottles of sauce in the fridge, so I mixed together Dinosaur, SBR, and Roadhouse Texas Tango.
The photos tell the story. Notice that Grill Grates are pretty useful for standing the chops on end and searing that nice ring of pork fat! ETA, I shoulda cleaned the lens on the iPad, I think.
