Ingredients
  

  • 2 porterhouse steaks

  • Remove porterhouse from the refrigerator and transfer to a clean plate or cutting board. Salt both sides generously and allow them to sit at room temperature for 45 minutes

  • Brush both sides of the steaks with olive oil. Then, season with salt and pepper to taste
  • Add the steaks to the grill on its hottest part. Sear for 4-5 minutes until a golden-brown crust forms. Then, flip to the other side with tongs, searing for 4-5 minutes
  • Check that the internal temperature is between 120-125 degrees for medium-rare (about 130 for medium). If not, move steaks to a low-heat area of the grill; cover, and cook for 1-3 more minutes
