INGREDIENTS

BOURBON BUTTER
1/2 Cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
2 Clove Garlic, minced
2 Tablespoon bourbon
1 Tablespoon minced fresh chives or green onions
1 Tablespoon minced fresh parsley
1/2 Teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 Teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
SMOKED RIB-EYES
4 (1 inch thick) rib-eye steaks
To Taste Traeger Prime Rib Rub


STEPS
1

Make the bourbon butter: In a small bowl, stir together the butter, garlic, bourbon, chives, parsley, salt, and pepper with a wooden spoon until well combined. Refrigerate until ready to use.

2

When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 180℉ and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes. For optimal flavor, use Super Smoke, if available.

3

Generously season the steaks with Traeger Prime Rib Rub.

4

Insert the probe into the the center of a steak, avoiding the bone and any large pockets of fat. Place the steaks directly on the grill grates, close the lid, and smoke for 1 hour.

5

Remove the steaks from the grill. Increase the grill temperature to 500℉.

6

When the grill is hot, return the steaks to the grill and reinsert the probe. Close the lid, and cook, turning once, until the internal temperature reaches 135℉ for medium-rare, 6-8 minutes per side, or your desired temperature

7

Transfer the steaks to a serving platter and immediately top each with a pat of the bourbon butter. Let the meat rest for 3 minutes before slicing or serving. Enjoy!
