Porterhouse With Balsamic Steak Sauce Food

PORTERHOUSE WITH BALSAMIC STEAK SAUCE

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.

EL PASEO PORTERHOUSE STEAK

Steps:

• Season the meat before broiling: liberally rub salt over both sides of the steak. Place the steak directly onto the broiler, no extra fat is needed, at 1200 degrees for 20 minutes. After 10 minutes turn the steaks over and return to the broiler: they only need turning once. After 20 minutes, remove the steak from the broiler. Place the steak in the clarified butter, sage, thyme and garlic mixture, and leave to rest for 10 minutes, basting the top with butter. Remove the steak from the clarified butter and place on kitchen roll to remove any excess. To serve, separate the fillet and strip sirloin from the bone and slice. Place the T-bone in the centre of the plate and reassemble the steak, with the sliced sirloin to the left and sliced fillet to the right. Sprinkle over freshly ground black pepper to taste. Place the shallot butter on top of each steak, and garnish with half a garlic bulb taken from the clarified butter, a sprig of thyme and a generous drizzle of garlic butter.

PORTERHOUSE STEAKS WITH TAPENADE AND BALSAMIC VINEGAR

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Mix tapenade and rosemary in small bowl to blend. Sprinkle steaks with salt and generously with cracked black pepper.
• Divide olive oil between 2 heavy medium ovenproof skillets set over high heat. Add 1 steak to each skillet and cook until both are browned, about 3 minutes per side. Spread half of tapenade mixture atop each steak. Transfer skillets with steaks to oven. Cook both steaks until thermometer inserted into center of steaks registers 125°F for medium-rare, about 20 minutes. Transfer both steaks to platter. Pour 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar into each skillet and cook over medium heat until liquid is slightly reduced, scraping up browned bits, about 1 minute. Drizzle hot skillet juices over each steak and serve.
• *Look for tapenade (an earthy, thick paste or spread made from brine-cured olives, olive oil, capers, anchovies, lemon juice, and seasonings) at some supermarkets, specialty foods stores, and Italian markets.
