Main Ingredient

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Remove the Porterhouse steak from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 1 hour.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Generously season both sides of the steak with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, pressing the seasoning into the meat.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to high heat (around 500°F or 260°C). If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are hot and glowing.

  2. 4

    Oil the Grill Grates

    Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.

  3. 5

    Grill the Steak

    Place the steak on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes on one side, or until a nice crust forms. Flip the steak and cook for another 5-7 minutes for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness.

  4. 6

    Add Rosemary

    During the last minute of cooking, place the fresh rosemary sprigs on the grill next to the steak for added flavor.

  5. 7

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing.

Serving

  1. 8

    Slice and Serve

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