Porterhouse Steaks

Preheat grill to high. Brush steaks on both sides with butter or oil, season with fresh sea salt and black pepper and grill on high for 12-16 minutes (flipping halfway through) or until the internal temperature registers 5-10°F lower than your desired doneness (see internal temperature guidelines below).

Let the steaks rest for 3-5 minutes prior to serving. Temperature will continue to rise while resting.

Preheat a heavy non-stick skillet over medium heat until hot, for about 5 minutes. A very hot pan delivers the best seared steak. Season steaks and place in the hot skillet. Do not overcrowd, cover the pan or add oil/water.

Sear for 12-16 minutes (flipping halfway through) or until the internal temperature registers 5-10°F lower than your desired doneness (see internal temperature guidelines below).

Let the beef rest for 3-5 minutes prior to serving. Temperature will continue to rise while resting.
