Print This Recipe



INGREDIENTS

A (3-½ to 4 pound) T-bone or porterhouse steak, cut 2-inches thick
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Light a 1 to 2-inch thick layer of briquettes in a charcoal grill and let the coals burn until white ash appears on the surface.

Broil the steak about 4 inches from the heat until it is done to suit your taste, turning it once with heavy tongs or with a kitchen fork inserted into the outer rim of fat.

Broil it about 7 to 8 minutes on each side for rare steak, 9 to 10 minutes for medium, and 11 to 12 minutes on each side for well done.

Transfer the steak to a heated platter, season it lightly with salt and a few grindings of pepper, and serve at once.

Serves 4 to 6
