- Can A Traeger Really Sear A Ribeye Steak? | Ft. Kosmos Q We've all been wondering, now its time to get an answer! We grabbed the nicest prime ribeye steak we could find locally, unboxed our brand new Traeger Timberline 850 and rolled! You may have your own favorite method for cooking ribeye steak, and let us be honest there are so many options, but if you ask me, a steak should be cooked over direct heat, preferably flame! Back in 2015, I won the world SCA steak competition using my own line of small-batch seasonings on a steak that I picked out of a line up so believe me, you're in good hands! So go ahead and check out our little steak experiment. Be sure to let us know what you think down in the comments!

I think this guy might’ve won the world steak championship in 2015
Really,who told you that🤔
Wow. That is good steak championship knowledge. Or you might have been listening to the 5-6 times he obliquely slid it into the presentation......lol.
@@stevevicory9623 oblivious to humor.
Not to be confused with thr Steak World Championship of 2015. I won that.
Impossible, it was some other dude
Just bought a traeger today. Seasoned it at max temp with a 30 dollar cast iron grill grate on. Then threw the steaks on. Great grill marks. You don't really have to take the drip pan and heat deflector out.
GREAT video. Will be trying that on my Traeger at home.
My Pitt Boss smoker grill at my lake place has a slide that opens up the flame to the meat.
It cooks great steaks and still smokes whatever you may wish when the slide is shut.
Kosmo answering the hard hitting questions! Another great video to go along with those killer products.
Thank you Eric Justin Bates.
You gotta love Kosmo. One of the very few that says what’s on his mind and doesn’t worry about the rest.
Thank you Daniel Hayward.
I was about to sell my Traeger....until. This video! Steak heaven is here! THIS WORKS!
Thanks Man. You saved my grill!
Im selling mine. Absolutely trash
Thank you for showing us to remove the heat baffles and just cook over the flame. Awesome!
Love it. I’ve been thinking about doing that forever but haven’t seen any videos of anyone searing over the fire pot like that. Your the first and now I have permission to do it. Lol
Rock on my friend!!
That new Weber pellet grill sure looks nice. That’s my pick for sure! Purchased your rubs for the first time and made a brisket for my family on Thanksgiving. Wife said it was the best BBQ I’ve ever made. Thanks for what you do Mr. Kosmo!
Thank you Jason Burns, Congrats on your Thanksgiving.
Best video you've produced in a while. Love it.
Thank you Toby Gangluff.
I used the award winning seasoning combination on a pair of usda choice ribeyes tonight and they were absolutely, without a doubt, the best steaks I’ve ever cooked. Exceptional crust, fork tender, and over flowing juices ...
Great video!! This is the only issue I have with my Traeger, not being able to sear steaks. I am definitely going to try this!! Thank you so much!!!
Don’t get the grease in the wood burner. Yikes
So how did it go ??
I did the finger thing in the past when I was cooking on propane and didn't know about reverse searing, it worked okay but I don't want an okay steak. Probe thermometers have elevated my steak game
We've used a camp chef pellet smoker with a sear box on the side..... smoke them to near temp then sear on the sear box. It was phenomenal!
Your one cool grilling man. Your genuine style won me over.
These are the videos I tune in for from you, Kosmo!!
Thank you Chris Gardner
My dad and I used the Cow Cover, Dirty Bird Hot, and Texas Beef on some bone-in Ribeyes this past weekend. Brother, one bite and we both looked at each other and was like “ohhhh yeaahhhh”. LOL. He won’t shut up about the rubs now and wants me to buy him his own set. We were very impressed with the flavor. I recommend anyone try this next with your steaks. They were money!! Thanks Kosmo 👍🏼🇺🇸
This is one of your best videos man! I love it ✌️😎
Thank you The Mad Swine Backyard Barbeque.
I have a pit boss pellet grill and it has a sliding piece on the difflector where you can sear over the pot and it works great. It's a third of the price and I've had it over three years with no problems. Good to see a video from you!
that idea was sooo clever from pitboss/Lousiana. Thats a reason to get one for me. The Rest of them looks okay but not good....
i also thought of buying another one and diy the idea
Love steak over the flame on my pit boss!
That was the only good feature on my pit boss, for more precision smoking, it sucked. Great grill not a great smoker
😂 😂 haven’t heard the word Dillwod in years!! Love my pellet grill, super easy and makes some great bbq!
I think it's Dillwad
Love the new style of editing
Thank you Brandon Thomas.
I use to use a pellet grill then go to a gas for sear marks. Then I started using grill grates on the pellet grill to get sear marks, now I got a kamado joe being delivered Monday lol. As always awesome video!
Do you find yourself mostly using the traeger now or the kamado? Especially now you've had many years to use both?
I'm actually trying to decide which one to get
First video I've seen from you. Automatically subscribed for your personality lol
Just ordered the grill grate and your three rubs on this video! Love what you did to steak!
I have a traeger and I always reverse seer my steaks. I smoke them to 105 then put them in a cast iron skillet with herb butter. The best steaks I have ever had. That being said I will give this a try when I dont want to get the cast iron skillet dirty and just want to cook some ez steaks. Good video.
Facts Hurt do you sear on the traeger or on the stove?
@@lamf5224 stove more than likely
I gave your YT a shoutout because I like that we finally have a good youtuber in my state
Thank you Zack Haynie.
If you like Steak videos then this is a must-watch!!! czcams.com/video/bYwicrZw2xc/video.html
It was great to meet you and the team yesterday!
Awesome as always! Can you do more pellet smoker videos? Definitely a brisket on it please!
I have found cow cover and tri tip are made for each other Then reverse sear with grill grates on my TRAEGER Thanks Kosmo
I did this and it melted the paint off the bottom of the Timberline! To Traegar's credit, however, they sent me a knew grill. THANKFULLY though, the grill had never flaired to more than 500 degrees because if it had, they would have stuck it to me. Lastly, they can view every cook you have ever had on the grill (say thanks to the wifi connection) and they also know how hot the grill was during every cook! User beware.
You crack me up. Thanks for the video!
Who says you can’t learn anything on CZcams?! Again excellent video. I thought my rib eyes were the best loos like it’s back to the cutting board with your tips. I can’t wait. Thx
Positively my favorite CZcamsr. Thanks for the great videos even during the "off season" for grilling and BBQ.
Bro every time I watch your channel you make my mouth water🤤
Great video. Like the new approach!
Thank you William Picher.
This video is great my dude!!
Great video. Thanks!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! Man you are a lifesaver. For my Traeger I mean...
"More Traeger's lives have been saved by this man, than by any other man that lived in it." - Abraham Lincoln
I haven't tried your rubs yet, I definitely will, but just your cooking method alone I've been able to cook perfect steak and chicken so far!
Appreciate you!
I used to think real men only cook on stick burners until life hit and I had to move into an apartment...had to get a pellet smoker...camp chef XXL pellet Smoker...and I am almost a believer. I had to get a smoke tube to get more smoke flavor into the meat...as well as try damn near every pellet brand produced, But I've been KINDA converted...Kinda cause ain't nothing like a fire, and seeing that light blue smoke while having a great IPA with a Tito's backer! FYI I use Lumberjack CharHickory pellets mixed with GMG Texas blend in the hopper and I use Lumberjack 100% Pecan in the smoker tube.
Great Video Kosmo! Keep em coming!
I have a Yoder ys640. I can sear with or without the heat deflector plate. I love that thing! Kosmo. Your cow cover hot is still the BEST beef rub out there. Mix in a little Texas beef rub and wooowee is it good eatin
I just happen to have cow cover, db, and Texas beef. Gonna have to hook up some steaks this weekend
Loved the short video.., I have 3 Traeger’s and use them all
I like steaks and I like the way this guy presents himself. Subscribed.
You can do this easily with a pitboss pellet feed smoker bbq. Its what I got and do.
Love this guy's personality
Looked delicious! A little more involved than I’d like with removing the grease plate. I think I’m going to try searing with a cast iron pan inside the Traeger for a better crust.
That’s what I do. Works every time. Just make sure you give it the time it needs to heat up to 500.
Just use a cast iron skillet or griddle on a propane burner. You'll get a vastly superior crust and save your wood pellets.
@@ParadigmUnkn0wn yeah, the cast iron took too much energy to absorb the heat. I ended up buying some Grill Grates that heat up quickly and add a nice sear at the end (griddle side up). Not as nice of a char as cast iron, but it still adds a good crust.
Love the energy big dog.
The only way I’ve been able to sear on a smoker is to smoke it to get that flavor into it then take it off like you did and let it sit while I heat the smoker up to 500 degrees. However, I put a cast iron skillet in there and that heats up to 500 degrees too. Then I sear it on the cast iron skillet and done.
Awesome tips , just got an ironwood 650 and smokin a Turkey today. Way to improvise!!!
I always sear mine first then put it to the side and go a few min then check for the way it feels I just know the way a medium rare steak should feel but man I Cooked a 6 pound bone in prime rib for thanksgiving and I took butter and butchers pepper then some fresh ground pepper good bit of salt and coated the whole thing in it with the mixture wrapped it in Saran Wrap for the day and night took it out let it warm up the next day then put it over the flames on my pit boss pellet grill seared cross hatches on all three sides then took it off threw it in the oven and cookec it like Kent Rollins did in a video and was perfect 👌🏼 all the way threw medium rare with just a few rare slices in the center
wow very refreshing way to make a smoker video congrats you just got yourself a new subscriber... entertaining
I see that it works for one steak... what you recommend to do when you're with 5 of 6 friends?? Thanks from Montreal Quebec
This is valuable content!
Love the video!
Nailed it!
I love how you’re so real. Use it if you want. If you don’t, I dont care! Lol
Thank you Todd P
I have the ironwood 650. Haven’t tried this yet, but now I’m sure gonna.
I have done several steaks on my offset stick burner, seared in the fire box grill, then smoked turns good but I scrapped a couple trying to cook in the smoke pit lol
I've reverse seared a rib eye and it came out amazing. Thats all I gotta say
Just need to get you one of those new Weber pellet grills and try them out. Watched a few videos on them, they look awesome
Where there's a will there's a way!! Nice looking steak Kos. For multiple steaks I use my Traeger at 225 on super smoke to reach 100 internal temp and then switch them to my Weber for the sear.
sounds good to me!
This was an awesome vid
@kosmo's after our discussion at church Sunday, This is EXACTLY what I pictured ROFLMBO!!
You could also try the pizza attachment from gmg (which should fit) and instead of a pizza stone have the griddle in there. Should be even hotter as it funnels the heat right to the griddle
My grills only get to about 375 or 400 at best. Still, I like to cook my NY strips on high while placing my steaks on the edge of the grates so that the direct heat comes around and sears the fat edge of the steak. Even though the rest of the steaks aren’t seared they still come out great.
Thank you so much for the tip. I have a Traeger and have been frustrated why I can’t get the steaks to be nearly as good as my charcoal grill. Now I’ve got a new idea to try.
Can’t wait!! 👍
If I am cooking a really thick cut, I will go low and slow in super-smoke like he did on his first steak but I will finish it on my blackstone to get the crust. Works great. If I am cooking a more typical steak, I don't even bother with my Traeger, its either my Charcoal, my Weber Propane, or my Blackstone
Weber’s new smoke fire goes up to 600° with grill grates that’ll be even higher.👍
But it's a piece of junk so don't waste your time
@@anthonystaggs6239 yeah I learned that close to a year ago weber smoke fires a total fail!! Bummer
First video I have seen of this guy. He is funny as hell. Great video.
Appreciate you!
“…like an ‘06 Dodge Diesel.” Noyce!
That’s worth a sub!😁🍻
Omg that looked amazing. Have you ever used an Ozark pellet grill? Was thinking of getting one. They're much more in my price range. Farm and home had them on sale for $200.
I just ordered Cow Cover, Dirty Bird and Texas Beef rub. looking forward to trying them out!
Thank you and enjoy Badback60
Ordered at 11:41 am and shipped 1:14 pm, that is amazingly fast!
Really excellent, creative video.
Appreciate you!
Dude....that video was AWESOME lol!!!
Thank you Eric Ousley Jr
Kosmo, did you add a grill grate to the pellet grill? Just wondering thinking of ordering one
I would love to have a PK to do ribeyes the way you typically do them, but my Yoder YS640, direct heat with GrillGrates works really well.
Thanks for the Championship recipe, I’ll be trying that the next time I do some ribeyes.
Doesn't the steak juice mess up the inner workings of the grill? that's my biggest complaint about my camp chef pellet grill doesn't get hot enough. Love the video
500 is plenty hot especially if you use grillgrates on these... if you want hotter than that, your gonna be busting out lump and a regular grill
One of the reasons I went with the Pitboss Austin XL was it has the slide plate in the middle exposing the burn pot. Turns it into a damn flame thrower so I can char steaks n what not
First off I always wanted to try that method on my pellet grill but never did, but now that you did it I for sure am gonna give it a shot. Secondly I Definitely prefer this new style of editing, you and your crew are the shit! 👍🏽
Should have used the Grill Gate on the first steak, like you did with the second one.
Lol
That Final Fantasy Fanfare song earned my sub!
That Dirty Bird Hot is the "Truth". It is my favorite rub.
I still like cooking steaks on my PK.
Very seldom what I do one on my Grilla grill. They just turn out better over charcoal and a chunk of hickory. I just wish steak was only a penny!!!! Lol
Pit boss you can slide the heat shield to the left and be direct heat buy moving the middle grate slide it put back sear it
You need to try a camp chef slide and grill. You can slide the heat deflector out of the way.
Just got a Traeger and tried making some filets. I think I cooked at 275 until it got to the right internal temp for Medium, and then reverse seared on a skillet. While it was awesome for getting the right amount of doneness, the taste was not great.
Dang it Kosmo you done turned my guy into a que snob lol and won't q it up without a bottle or 2 of your rib candy lol . Keep up the great work buddy . 💖
Smart man!!
I'm a fan of throwing them in a pellet smoker set to 200F-275F (depends on your patience level, thickness of steaks, and desired smoke level), let them come up to ~105-110F, then pull them off and throw them on a hot griddle with some butter, or a screamin' hot griddle with some grapeseed or avocado oil. Also, dry brine them beforehand and put them straight in the smoker from the fridge, although starting from room temp works but you won't pickup as much flavor. The low n' slow beginning is kinda like sous vide, then the finish on a cast iron skillet or griddle gives you an even better crust than a charcoal grill could provide.
No pellet "grill" is truly suited to cooking steak from start to finish, not even the ones with a slide away heatshield. That said, some cast iron over a propane burner finishes what the pellets can't.
This is exactly how I make steaks now. It is without a doubt the best steaks Ive ever had. No need to let it sit and come to room temp when you reverse sear.
Man I swear I find myself using the kosmos Bbq sauce more and more now!
Thank you BassNBuck's
Now I see how to get grill marks on my steak on my camp chef. I just gut the smoker and put the grates back on. Thanks.
Fascinating
Nailed IT kosmo bro you ROCK. Can you smell what the kosmo is cooking. 💥💥💥
What kind of grates did you use and where can I buy them? Thanks!
Gotta try some Kosmos for shō. Also yes you can cook “A” steak on the T....as in one. Lol couldn’t resist.
At what internal temp do you take the steak off if you are trying to get more of a medium rare center? (Luke warm and red)
Finally someone who actually know what a good steak should look like. I have been a little dissapointed with my traeger grills inability to get hot enough to sear. Might have to try this or maybe drill holes through the heat shield to let more heat through. Hope I dont burn it to the ground!
Do you own a gas grill? Smoke the steak to 105, sear on gas. Boom, perfect.
I’m disappointed my traeger too for that reason. Did your try drilling the holes?
This guy is a riot!
the instructions for the timberline say to drop bottom shelf to diffuser for sear.
"...tiny stick burner..." Hahahahaahah lololol
AWESOME VIDEO. Do you smoke the steak first or do you just sear it and hope the middle reaches 135-ish?
Just sear!
I had one of those earlier USA made 075 Traegers some years back and I loved it....for smoking......for grilling it wasn't great but roasting was ok....but for steaks i loved my Weber Kettle. The newer type pellet grills are so much different, especially those of Yoder and Louisiana as they use the fire pot on the hopper end of the grill pitt and they generally have a sliding grill plate that opens up that end of the grill to the naked fire......so much better than the centre fire pot for grilling however i feel the centre pot gives the grill a more even heat for the entire length.
Thx for post. Was at friends cookout yesterday for burgers and brats and wasn't impressed with performance for grilling. He said he smoked a brisket previously and it was awesome but think was his first try at grilling. Think all was working properly and kept hood closed as much as possible but heat stayed 250-270 degree range. This was the little treager he had.
