Grilled Porterhouse Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the first six ingredients and rub both sides of the steak with equal amounts of the mixture.
• Let marinade for 1 to 2 hours.
• Set aside and prepare the grill to medium hot (you'll be able to hold your hand just above the grate for 2 seconds).
• Drain liquid from the steak and rub both sides of the steak with salt.
• Grill the steak on one side for 7 to 10 minutes, keeping the smaller tenderloin section over a less intense heat.
• If there are flare-ups, move the steak to another part of the grill that is cooler.
• Turn the steak and grill for another 6 to 7 minutes. It should be rare to medium rare at this point.
• Medium is about 10 minutes per side.
• Transfer the steak to a wooden carving platter and let it rest for 3 to 4 minutes so the meat relaxes and the juices redistribute.
• Serve it whole or else carve it, slice it, and reassemble it, saving the juices to pour over it.
• Fight over who gets which piece of the steak. LOL.

Steps:

• Prepare grill.
• Let steaks stand at room temperature 30 minutes. With a mortar and pestle or bottom of a heavy skillet coarsely crush peppercorns and in a small bowl combine with salt. Pat steaks dry and rub seasoning onto both sides of steaks, pressing to adhere.
• Grill steaks on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 7 to 9 minutes on each side, or until an instant-read thermometer registers 130°F. for medium-rare. (Alternatively, steaks may be broiled on rack of a broiler pan under a preheated broiler about 4 inches from heat.) Transfer steaks to a platter and let stand 10 minutes.
• Serve steaks sliced.

Steps:

• Build a multi-level fire in the grill: Leave 1/4 of the bottom free of coals, bank the coals in the remaining 3/4 of the grill so that they are 3 times as high on 1 side as on the other. When the coals are all ignited and the temperature is hot (Hold hand about 5-inches above grill grid, over the area where coals are deepest, for 2 seconds or less), the grill is ready to cook.
• Pat the steaks dry with paper towels, then rub them all over with 1/4 cup of the olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Place the steaks over the hottest part of the fire and cook until well seared on 1 side, 6 to 8 minutes. Then move them to the medium hot part of the grill and cook, turning once, until they are done the way you like them, 10 to 15 minutes more for rare. Check for doneness.
• Make mushrooms while grilling steaks: Combine the mushrooms, the remaining 1/4 cup of olive oil, and the teaspoon of pepper in a large bowl. Toss gently until the mushrooms are well coated and all the oil is absorbed.
• When steaks are done, transfer them to a serving platter, cover loosely with foil, and let them rest while grilling mushrooms. Put the mushrooms on the medium-hot part of the grill and cook, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and moist all the way through, about 8 to 10 minutes. Slice the cooked mushrooms and put them back in the bowl along with the butter, parsley, and sherry, season with salt and pepper, to taste, and toss gently to coat.
• To serve, cut the meat away from the bone, then cut it into thick slices. Divide them among 4 serving plates and spoon mushrooms over the top.

Steps:

• Trim the outer fat from the steak (or ask the butcher to do so). Rub the fat with the cut lemon to prevent burning and smoking. Score both sides of the tail of the steak and then fold it back towards the main body and attach it to the meat with a small metal skewer or sturdy wooden skewer. (If using a wooden skewer, soak it in water for about 20 minutes first).
• Combine the olive oil, garlic, scallions, salt and pepper in a glass or ceramic dish. Put the steak in the dish and turn several times to coat. Cover and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour or in the refrigerator for as long as 4 hours. Turn the meat once or twice during marinating.
• Prepare a charcoal or gas grill. Lightly spray the grill rack with vegetable oil cooking spray. The coals should be moderately hot to hot. Lift the steak from the marinade. Discard the marinade. Grill the steak, covered, for 10 to 12 minutes. Turn and grill, covered, for 10 to 12 minutes longer for medium-rare, or until it reaches the desired degree of doneness. Let the meat rest for a few minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Place steak on a plate and coat lightly with olive oil. Rub steak with meat tenderizer. Sprinkle steak with Canadian steak seasoning and gently rub into steak. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand for 20 minutes.
• Preheat a grill for high heat. When the grill is hot, lightly oil the grate.
• Unwrap steaks and grill on open flame or charcoal grill for 3 to 5 minutes per side, or to your desired degree of doneness.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Season steaks with salt and pepper.
• Cook steaks on the preheated grill until they are beginning to firm and are hot and slightly pink in the center, about 12 to 14 minutes, flipping halfway. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium.
• While the steaks are cooking, place garlic in a microwave-safe bowl. Sprinkle some salt over top and pour in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Mash garlic with the back of a sturdy knife into a fine paste. Stir in remaining oil and red pepper flakes. Heat in the microwave until hot, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, mixing every 30 seconds.
• Remove steaks from the oven and let sit covered for 4 to 5 minutes. Drizzle 2 tablespoons oil mixture over each steak and squeeze lemon wedges over top.

Steps:

• Mix all Paprika-Parmesan Butter ingredients in small bowl until blended.(Can be made 2 days ahead.) Use at room temperature.
• Place steak in glass baking dish.
• Whisk oil and next 5 ingredients in small bowl to blend. Pour half of marinade over steak. Turn steak over; pour remaining marinade over steak. Cover and chill at least 2 hours and up to 1 day, turning occasionally.
• Prepare grill, (medium heat).
• Remove steak from marinade; shake off excess.
• Place steak on grill; cover grill.
• Grill steak to desired doneness,(until instant-read thermometer inserted into center of steak registers 115 F to 120 F for rare,about 15 minutes per side,or 125 F to 130 F for medium-rare, about 18 minutes per side),occasionally moving steak to cooler part of rack if cooking too quickly.
• Transfer steak to platter; cover to keep warm. Let stand 5 minutes.
• Using sharp knife, cut meat away from bone. Cut each meat section into 1/3-inch-thick slices.
• Spread Paprika-Parmesan Butter over top of slices and serve.

Steps:

• Prepare grill for direct- and indirect-heat cooking. Pat steak dry and season generously with salt and pepper; let stand 10 minutes. Brush grates with oil and grill steak over high direct heat, turning occasionally, until a nice crust forms, 6 to 8 minutes a side.
• Transfer to indirect heat, cover, and continue to cook, flipping once more, until a thermometer inserted into thickest part (nearest but not touching bone) registers 125°F for medium rare, 8 to 10 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, combine butter and garlic in a saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat (you can do this on the direct-heat side of the grill), swirling occasionally, until butter turns golden brown and gives off a nutty aroma, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
• In a bowl, toss arugula, celery and leaves, and olives with lemon juice. Slice steak from bone, then carve against the grain into thick slices. Pile salad on top of steak; drizzle brown butter generously over both. Grate horseradish over top; serve.

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium-high. Place shallots and potatoes separately on 2 large double layers of foil lined with parchment paper; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Fold parchment and foil around vegetables and crimp edges to form 2 packets.
• Clean and lightly oil hot grill. Grill vegetables, flipping once, until shallots are soft and potatoes are cooked through and crisp around edges, 30 minutes.
• After vegetables have been on grill 10 minutes, season steak with salt and pepper and grill, turning occasionally, until medium-rare, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer steak to a cutting board and tent loosely with foil. Let rest 10 minutes before cutting meat from both sides of bone and thinly slicing against the grain. Serve with shallots and potatoes.

Steps:

• With motor running, drop garlic cloves 1 at a time into a food processor and finely chop. Add salt, pepper, chili powder, and oil and process until blended (bits of garlic will remain).
• Coat steaks generously on both sides with paste and let stand about 30 minutes.
• Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over hot charcoal (medium-high heat for gas).
• Oil grill rack, then grill steaks in 2 batches, turning once, covered only if using a gas grill, 2 minutes a side per batch for medium-rare. Let rest, loosely covered, 5-10 minutes.
