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.

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.

SPICE-ROASTED PORTERHOUSE STEAKS

Steps:

• Place two 2-inch-thick porterhouse steaks on a heavy rimmed baking sheet. Brush both sides with a full-flavored olive oil, then rub 1 1/2 tablespoons of the Coriander-Herb Spice Rub into each side of each steak.
• Preheat the oven to 450°F. Roast steaks until a meat thermometer inserted into the center registers 125°F for rare, about 25 minutes. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board, cover loosely with foil, and let rest 10 minutes. To serve, cut the 2 whole pieces of meat (known as the loin and the fillet) from each steak, and slice. Give each guest a few slices of the loin and the fillet.

SALT-ROASTED PORTERHOUSE

Steps:

• Mix first 7 ingredients in small bowl. Transfer 2 tablespoons spice mixture to spice grinder; grind finely. Mix in 1 teaspoon salt. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 week ahead. Store whole and ground spice mixtures separately in airtight containers at room temperature.
• Rub ground spice mixture all over steak. Wrap in plastic; chill 3 hours.
• Preheat oven to 475°F. Unwrap steak; place in large ovenproof skillet. Mix whole spice mixture with 1 1/2 cups kosher salt in medium bowl. Add 1/4 cup water; stir to moisten. Pack salt over top and sides of steak. Roast until instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into steak registers 130°F for medium-rare, about 25 minutes. Let stand at room temperature 8 minutes. Crack salt crust with wooden spoon; discard. Turn steak over. Slice into 1/2-inch-thick slices.

THE PERFECT PORTERHOUSE STEAK & MARINADE

Steps:

• Whisk together oil and vinegar until well blended, add remaining ingredients. Pour over porterhouse steaks, or any steak for that matter, in a dish or in a 1 gallon sized storage bag. Marinate at least 8 hours. Grill or broil and enjoy.
• Note: this recipe can easily be doubled or tripled for more steaks.

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.
