    Preparation Steps

    1

    Let the steak stand at room temperature for 30 minutes to ensure even cooking. Meanwhile, rub it with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

    2

    Preheat the smoker to 230°F (110°C). Distribute the charcoal or wood evenly in the smoker to ensure long and consistent smoke.

    3

    Lightly brush both sides of the steak with olive oil, then place it in the smoker. Smoke over low heat for about 45-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 122-131°F (50-55°C) for medium-rare.

    4

    While the steak is smoking, prepare the whiskey-mustard glaze: melt the butter in a saucepan, then add the honey, Dijon mustard, and whiskey. Cook over low heat for 3-5 minutes, or until slightly thickened.

    5

    Once the steak is sufficiently smoky, sear it on a high-heat grill grate for 1-2 minutes per side to develop a crispy crust.

    6

    Brush both sides of the steak with the whiskey-mustard glaze, then cook for another minute or so, until the glaze is lightly caramelized.

    7

    Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for at least 10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

    8

    After resting, slice the steak into thin slices, and serve with freshly made whiskey-mustard glaze and your favorite side dishes.
