Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the steak

    Take the porterhouse steak out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps it cook more evenly.

  2. 2

    Season the steak

    Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Generously season both sides with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Preheat the grill or pan

    Heat a grill or a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add olive oil to the skillet if using.

  4. 4

    Cook the steak

    Once hot, place the porterhouse steak on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting time for desired doneness.

  5. 5

    Add aromatics

    In the last few minutes of cooking, add the garlic cloves and rosemary to the pan or grill for added flavor.

  6. 6

    Rest the steak

    Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

  7. 7

    Serve

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