Directions
- Prep Your Outdoor Electric Grill
- For Grilled Steak and Potato, put 1½ Tablespoons wood pellets in the smoker tube. Evenly distribute the pellets so that they are in a single layer in the tube.
- Uncover grill. Plug into the outlet and press Reset, Test, and Reset again on the cord’s safety device.
- Place the smoker tube toward the back of the grill, close the lid, and preheat for 25 minutes on High.
- Prep the Steak
- Remove the steaks from the refrigerator 20-30 minutes before grilling.
- Sprinkle both sides of the steaks with salt and black pepper.
- Grill the Steak
- After your outdoor electric grill has preheated, place the steaks on the grill. Keep the lid closed unless you are turning the food.
- Grill on High Heat for about 3-4 minutes depending on thickness.
- Turn steaks over with long grill tongs and grill for about 4-6 minutes to the desired meat temperature.
- Move steaks to a large plate and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Serve your grilled steak!
- Clean Your Outdoor Electric Grill
- After removing the Grilled Steak, close your outdoor electric grill lid and leave it on High for 10 minutes.
- Turn the grill off. Leave the lid closed for at least 10 minutes or until you are ready to clean the grill.
- While the grill is still warm, brush the grill grate with a stainless steel grill brush.
- Leave the lid open to let the grill cool down and wood pellets burn out.
- Lift the grates and use a plastic putty knife to lightly scrape debris from the bottom of them and the lower bowl through the hole into the drip pan.
- Wipe the grates and the inside of the lid with a dry paper towel to remove any remaining loose debris.
- Remove the aluminum foil drip pan liner.
- Careful to make sure the smoker tube is cool, empty ash from the smoker tube into the drip pan liner. Place a small amount of water on the ash in the pan to ensure the ash is wet and cold.
- Wipe the drip pan liner out with a paper towel into a trash can and wash it with hot water and soap. Dry and return to grill.
- Unplug the grill and replace the cover.
