Tried another porterhouse on the grill and what a debacle. I just cannot get this right.
Started in on one side for about a minute and had just started to sear the fatty edge, then about 30 seconds after this pic...
...the propane ran out. Lolme.
Ran inside and fired up the cast iron... only to realize that I had only crappy veg oil.
While the steak was resting the wife stole the pan I was using and decided to cook some chicken. So that thing got a nice 40 minute rest and was almost cold when I threw it back on.
Was surprised to find that a few bits actually came out how I wanted
But overall the steak was cooked unevenly and was pretty greybandyish.
Also lol at my crappy knife "skills". Not pretty.
I was annoyed and decided I wanted tacos anyway so I fried some tortillas and loaded them up.
The end.
If anyone has tips on how to properly and evenly cook a porterhouse I'm all ears. So far I haven't been able to get the filet and strip sides to both come out any better than 6/10.
