Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Remove the porterhouse steak from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Pat it dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Rub both sides of the steak with olive oil. Generously season with kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, and garlic powder. Sprinkle fresh rosemary on both sides.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Pan

    Preheat your grill or cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot.

  4. 4

    Cook the Steak

    Place the steak on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side without moving it, then flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare. Adjust cooking time based on your preferred doneness.

  5. 5

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Slice the porterhouse steak against the grain and serve with your favorite sides.
