cooking skills to teach kids

You need to learn how to prepare grilled porterhouse steaks for your holiday guests. You can make this dish easily by following the steps outlined below. Before you begin cooking, coat the meat with olive oil. It is important to rub the oil all over the meat, and to ensure that the grates have been properly seasoned. Gas grills should be heated to medium heat, and electric grills to medium heat.

Firstly, you need to clean and oil the grill grates. After cleaning the grill, you can place the meat. Separate the meat from its bone. Next, cut it along the 'T' line of the bone. Slice the steak into slices about a pencil thickness and arrange them around bone shape. For the final touch, drizzle some balsamic Vinegar and compound butter on top.

After choosing your steak, towel or paper towels should be used to dry it. This will absorb any moisture and prevent the steak sticking to the grill. Then, coat the steak with oil and season with salt and pepper. Before grilling your steaks, you can also marinate them. Marinating your porterhouse steaks before grilling will enhance their flavor and tenderness. This process should be done prior to grilling.

Whatever method you use to cook your porterhouse, ensure it has a nice sear. You have two options for cooking the porterhouse: electric or charcoal. The charcoal grills are best suited to cooking thicker steaks. And you can choose a grill with a variable section for indirect or direct heat. The main goal of any grill is to cook the porterhouse steak medium-rare.


When grilling a porterhouse, it is important to remove it from the fridge at minimum an hour before cooking. This will allow the meat's salt to be absorbed and make it more flavorful. Prepare the sweet potato while you wait. Pour some water into a saucepan and season with salt. Next, boil the potatoes till the water evaporates. Drain the potatoes and let them cool.

The second step is to choose the correct type of steak when grilling a porterhouse. The cut should be medium to medium rare. A medium-rare porterhouse should be grilled for about 10 to 13 minutes for a 1-inch steak and 14 to 17 minutes for a 1/2-inch piece. When serving steaks to a large party, let the meat rest for five mins before cutting. During resting the temperature will increase another 5 degrees, bringing the final temperature of the steaks to one hundred-thirty degrees.

When grilling porterhouse steaks for a crowd, it is important to use a proper method. You can use a griddle that has a vortex to cook it quickly. To flip the steak, heat it on a grill for ten to fifteen minutes. Direct searing requires a grill that has a large surface. For porterhouse steaks, you will need a griddle with a thin bottom.
