The SRF Gold Label™ Porterhouse is a superior steak in every sense of the word. It’s cut from out most marbled American Wagyu beef for unparalleled juicy flavor. Each Porterhouse is generous in size and consists of a robust New York strip and tender filet mignon, making it a self-contained steak sampler.
The SRF Gold Label™ Porterhouse is a monumental steak in both size and marbling. This bone-in beauty weighs an average of two pounds, ensuring enough steak for more than one ravenous diner. Cut from premium American Wagyu beef that’s infused with intense intramuscular fat, each Porterhouse grades at the top of our marbling scale.
Each Porterhouse contains a New York strip and a tender filet mignon so you can make certain there’s a portion for different steak loving palates at the table. A t-shaped bone provides great eye-appeal and insulates the surrounding steak for enhanced juiciness and tenderness.
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. Prime is the top grade on the USDA scale and features an abundant amount of marbling.
Snake River Farms produces beef that measures above the USDA scores. To grade these higher levels of marbling and quality, we utilize the 12-point BMS (Beef Marbling Score or Beef Marbling Standard) from the Japanese Meat Grading Association (JMGA). SRF Black Label ™ and SRF Gold Label ™ both score above USDA Prime.
SRF Black Label ™ is rated a BMS of 6 to 8 with significantly more marbling than USDA Prime graded beef.
SRF Gold Label ™ registers a BMS of 9 to 12 and contains the highest level of marbling we offer.
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 thelongissimus dorsimuscle, the source of the New York strip. A t-shaped bone divides the steak and the smaller side of the steak is thepsoas 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.
