Help with a porterhouse
Posted on 1/26/15 at 12:43 pm

Doing a reverse sear tonight for my girl's b-day and I'm not experienced with this method. I've got a 1.5lb porterhouse which seems to be around an inch thick (IIRC). Could anyone give me suggestions on cooking this bad boy rare?

Well, the reverse sear is pretty damn hard to screw up. Season your meat, through a meat thermometer in the thick part of that bad boy, put in the oven at 250, and cook it until your thermometer says 118-120.
Take it out, rest it for about 10 minutes or so, and hit with a high, hard, and fast sear for about 30-45 seconds on each side.
I haven't done one on the grill, but the process is exactly the same.

2" thick is optimum for a reverse sear. I've never done one that way under 1.5"

I know you already have it, but demand thick steaks from now on. One inchers tend to overcook. Also, be prepared for lots of smoke with a high heat skillet. I've set off my smoke detector more than once.
