Grilled Pork Shoulder Steaks BBQ Recipe

Ingredients :
1-1/2 tablespoons Hungarian paprika
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest (zest from 1 lemon)
1 tablespoon dried marjoram
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon caraway seeds, crushed
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
8 boneless pork shoulder steaks, cut 3/4-inch thick (about 6 ounces each)

Preparation :
Ask your butcher to cut these steaks 3/4" thick. Serve with Hot German Potato Salad and a cucumber salad.
In a small bowl combine paprika, coriander, lemon zest, marjoram, garlic powder, salt, pepper, cumin, caraway seeds, and cinnamon. Rub herb mixture on both sides of steaks, pressing into surface. 
Place steaks in centre of cooking grate. Grill 10 minutes for medium (160?F/71?C) or 12 to 14 minutes for well-done (170?F/77?C), turning once halfway through grilling time. 

Makes 8 servings. 

Note: 3 to 4 pounds of country-style spareribs can be substituted for pork shoulder steaks. For 3 to 4 pounds of country-style ribs, prepare as above and grill 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours or until well-done 170?F (77?C).

Handy Hints for Grilling Pork: 
Most barbecue sauces contain sugar, which easily burns, so don't sauce your ribs until the last 10 to 20 minutes of grilling time. 
Don't parboil your ribs! You'll just boil away all the flavor. Instead, cook them low and slow over Indirect heat. 
Chops 1-inch or thicker are best for the grill. For the most flavorful chop, lightly coat the chops with oil and sear them like you would a steak. Finish them up over Indirect Medium heat. 
Tenderloin can be safely removed from the grill at 155?F if it is covered with foil and allowed to rest for 5 minutes before carving. During that time, the temperature should rise to a perfect 160?F. Use a meat thermometer to be sure.
