The USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) separates domestic beef into eight grades, based on intramuscular fat or marbling, and other qualities like tenderness, juiciness, and flavor. The two highest grades are Prime and Choice.
USDA Prime is the top grade on the USDA scale and features a moderately abundant amount of marbling. Only 5 to 6% of all U.S. beef grades at this high level.
USDA Choice falls directly below USDA Prime. Choice beef is high quality and has less marbling but offers an excellent value.
Porterhouse steaks are unique since they contain two different steaks that cook at different rates.. The reverse sear method helps keep both sides cook evenly.
Be sure to completely thaw your steak before cooking.
Internal temperature is the most accurate way to know if your steak is done. Keep a good quality thermometer on hand.
Rest your steak at least 10 minutes before serving to let the internal temperature equalize and allow the juices to be reabsorbed.
Slice steak against the grain at 90° to the direction of the muscle fibers. This makes for a more tender bite.
Finish your steak with a light sprinkle of flaky salt for a nice presentation and an appetizing salty crunch.
The Porterhouse is cut from the short loin, a smaller portion of the loin primal. The larger side of the steak is the longissimus dorsi muscle, the source of the New York strip. A t-shaped bone divides the steak and the smaller side of the steak is the psoas major, a muscle that receives minimal use and is the most tender of all beef cuts.
The Porterhouse and t-bone are both cut from the short loin. A Porterhouse must have a section of tenderloin at least 1.5 inches wide. Any smaller and it’s a t-bone.
