Smoked Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf

From Steaks to Slow Cooks

Pick marinated flank steak, tri-tip, or a tomahawk ribeye when you want a sliced steak dinner. Brisket, beef ribs, and short rib ragu suit a longer cooking day. Prime rib makes a centerpiece, while smoked meatloaf is an easy way to change up the weeknight routine.

Make the Most of Smoked Beef Leftovers

Save cooked smoked beef for another meal with smoked brisket chili or a tri-tip sandwich. These are leftover ideas rather than additional raw-cut smoking methods.

Tips for Traeger Beef Recipes

Match your method to the cut: lean steak and a collagen-rich brisket need different finishes.
For a seared finish, check that your grill can reach the recipe’s higher temperature.
Slice across the grain and follow the resting instructions for the cut you are cooking.

Plan Your Next Cook

Use the Meat Smoking Calculator and Planner to organize your cooking day, then follow your recipe and thermometer for the finish.

Questions About Traeger Beef

Do all these beef recipes cook low and slow?

No. Some cuts use a long smoke, while steaks may use higher heat or a reverse sear. Follow the method for the specific cut.

What can I make with leftover smoked beef?

Smoked brisket chili and a tri-tip sandwich are two options in this collection. They use smoked beef but are not the same as cooking a whole brisket or tri-tip from raw.
