Ingredients

Servings
  • Porterhouse steak 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick
  • olive oil
  • salt to taste, freshly ground
  • black pepper to taste, freshly ground
  • 4 cloves garlic optional, chopped
  • fresh herbs such as thyme or rosemary (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare a clean, well-oiled charcoal or gas grill so that the coals or heat element are medium-hot.
  2. Brush both sides of the steak with oil and season liberally with salt and pepper. If desired, sprinkle with garlic and/or herbs and let rest at room temperature while the grill preheats.☞ TESTER TIP: If using the aromatics (and you don't mind dirtying another bowl), combine the oil, herbs, and garlic in a small bowl, completely coating the herbs and garlic. The oil will help them adhere to the steak and seems to slightly buffer the delicate herbs from the heat of the grill.
  3. Grill the steak, covered and turning once, until cooked to the desired doneness. Figure about 5 minutes on the first side and 4 minutes on the second for medium-rare and 8 minutes on the first side and 5 on the second for medium, although the timing will depend on the size of the steak and the precise temperature of your grill.
  4. Transfer the steak to a plate or, preferably a wire rack placed on a rimmed baking sheet and let it rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing it from the bone and serving. Divide the steak among 4 plates or, if you're all about appearances, place the bone on a platter and arrange the steak slices tidily against the bone, as if the steak was still uncut, as they do at steakhouses.
