Best Spice Roasted Porterhouse Steaks Recipes

PERFECT PORTERHOUSE STEAK

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.

PASTRAMI-SPICED PORTERHOUSE STEAKS

Steps:

• Prepare the steaks: Pulse the coriander seeds, peppercorns and mustard seeds in a spice grinder until coarsely ground. Transfer to a small bowl and add the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder and allspice; mix until evenly combined. Season the steaks all over with salt and pepper, then rub with the vegetable oil. Rub the steaks on both sides with the spice mixture, pressing to adhere. Let sit at room temperature, 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat a grill to medium high. Lightly oil the grates.
• Make the mustard butter: Stir the butter in a small bowl until smooth. Mix in the mustard, parsley, chives, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Grill the steaks until well marked, 4 to 5 minutes. Rotate the steaks 90 degrees, moving them around as needed to prevent flare-ups, and cook until crosshatch grill marks form, 4 to 5 more minutes. Flip the steaks and cook 4 to 5 minutes, then rotate 90 degrees and cook 4 to 5 more minutes, or until a thermometer inserted sideways into the center of the steaks registers 125 degrees F for medium rare. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and let rest at least 5 minutes. Serve with the mustard butter.

CAST-IRON SKILLET PORTERHOUSE STEAK

Steps:

• Let the steak rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until very hot.
• Season the steak heavily with salt and pepper on all sides. Add the oil to the skillet, then place the steak in the skillet and do not move it. Cook until a nice sear forms, about 3 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat, transfer the steak to a cutting board and cut both the filet and sirloin from the bone. Slice the steak against the grain into thick pieces. Put the bone back into the skillet and reassemble the steak around it (it should look like the steak originally did) with the seared side up. Top with pieces of butter. Add a couple cloves of garlic and a few sprigs of thyme or rosemary, if desired.
• Broil to desired doneness, about 4 minutes for medium rare, 5 to 6 minutes for medium. Transfer to a serving plate and pour the pan drippings over the steak.

SEARED PORTERHOUSE STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Heat a large cast-iron or other heavy ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Pat steak dry with paper towels. Season steak generously all over with salt and pepper. Add butter to skillet. When melted, place steak in skillet. Cook until well seared, about 4 minutes a side. Transfer skillet to oven. Continue to cook until a thermometer inserted in thickest part of steak reads 120 degrees for medium-rare, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer steak to rimmed baking sheet fitted with a wire rack. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with Compound Butter.

PERFECT PORTERHOUSE STEAK WITH HERB 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.
