Steps:
- Preheat a grill to high on one side and lightly oil the grate. Season a 2-inch-thick porterhouse steak (3 pounds) with coarse sea salt and pepper. Grill over direct heat for 4 minutes, then rotate the meat 90 and cook 2 more minutes. Repeat on the other side. Move the steak to the cooler part of the grill (position the smaller end away from the heat); cover and cook until the meat reaches 128 to 130 for medium-rare, 12 to 15 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing. To make the sauce, simmer 3/4 cup balsamic vinegar, 2/3 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup honey, 2 sliced shallots, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon dijon mustard, 1/4 teaspoon allspice, and salt, pepper and sugar to taste until thickened, about 15 minutes. Strain, then whisk in some butter.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, coriander, paprika, black pepper, onion powder, oregano and garlic. Rub the steaks on both sides with the mixture and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Grill the steaks until the internal temperature registers 125 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer for medium rare, 8 to 10 minutes per side. Remove the steaks from the grill, top each with 1 to 2 tablespoons of the Herb Butter and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
- Cut the meat from each side of the bone and slice across the grain into strips. Arrange around the bone and top with more Herb Butter for serving.
- In a large bowl, blend the butter, chives, parsley, Worcestershire, salt and pepper until completely combined. Use immediately or wrap into a cylinder in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to a month.

BOBBY FLAY'S PERFECT PORTERHOUSE STEAK RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Number Of Ingredients 4
Steps:
- Let steak sit at room temperature 30 minutes before cooking, which will help it cook quickly and more evenly. Heat broiler. Heat a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high heat, then heat oil in pan until smoking. Season steak very generously with salt and pepper and cook until a deep brown crust forms on underside (do not turn), about 4 minutes. Transfer steak to a cutting board, turning it browned side up. Cut meat from bone in 2 pieces (strip steak and filet mignon). Slice both pieces straight down perpendicular to the bone 1" thick. Replace sliced steak around the bone (it should look like a whole sliced steak) and return to skillet, browned side up. Top with butter and broil until butter is melted and steak is medium-rare, 4 to 6 minutes. Serve steak with buttery pan juices spooned over.
MARINADE FOR STEAK (PORTERHOUSE, SIRLOIN OR ANY BEEF CUTS)
This is a simple marinade for any beef cuts, the longer you marinate the more the flavour will soak into the meat. My carnivores (Little Miss (DD) and Hubby) really enjoyed it. I didn't mind it on chicken either.

Tips:
- Choosing the Right Cut of Steak: Select a thick-cut porterhouse steak, at least 1.5 inches thick, for the best flavor and tenderness.
- Tenderizing the Steak: Use a meat mallet or a fork to tenderize the steak, breaking down the muscle fibers and making it more receptive to the marinade.
- Homemade vs. Store-Bought Marinade: Consider making your own marinade using fresh ingredients for a more flavorful and customized result.
- Marinating Time: The ideal marinating time for a porterhouse steak is between 6 and 24 hours, depending on the marinade's intensity and your desired flavor.
- Chilling the Steak: Always chill the marinated steak for at least 30 minutes before cooking to allow the marinade to penetrate and distribute evenly.
- Cooking Method: For a classic porterhouse steak, opt for grilling or pan-searing, ensuring a flavorful crust and a juicy, tender interior.
- Resting the Steak: After cooking, let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more succulent and flavorful steak.
