Follow The Directions

01

Step

5 mins

Prepare the Grill: Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat (about 375-450°F or 190-230°C). Ensure the grill grate is clean and lightly oiled. (5 minutes)

02

Step

2 mins

Season the Steaks: Generously season both sides of the porterhouse steaks with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. (2 minutes)

03

Step

13 mins

Grill the Steaks: Place the seasoned steaks on the preheated grill. Cook for approximately 6-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the steak registers 130-135°F (54-57°C). Adjust cooking time according to your desired level of doneness. (12-14 minutes)

04

Step

3 mins

Prepare Garlic-Infused Oil: While the steaks are grilling, in a microwave-safe bowl, combine the minced garlic with a pinch of salt and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Mash the garlic with the back of a spoon to create a paste. Stir in the remaining olive oil and red pepper flakes. Microwave on high for 1-1.5 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until the garlic is fragrant and lightly cooked but not burnt. (3 minutes)

05

Step

6 mins

Rest and Finish: Remove the grilled steaks from the grill and place them on a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and let them rest for 5-7 minutes. (5-7 minutes)

06

Step

1 mins

Serve: Drizzle 2 tablespoons of the garlic-infused oil over each steak. Squeeze the juice from a lemon wedge over each steak just before serving. Serve immediately.

For best results, allow the steaks to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before grilling.
Use a high-quality extra virgin olive oil for the most authentic Tuscan flavor.
Serve with crusty bread to soak up the delicious garlic-infused oil.
Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to suit your spice preference.
