GRILLED STEAK

The Gourmet Bon Vivant

Steaks on the grill are the ultimate treat. Smoky, savory, and perfectly cooked, these have little to dress them up, and are so easy! You can use any type of steak with this technique, not just T-bones.

Porterhouse Vs. T-bone Steaks These are essentially the same thing, but the filet mignon portion on a porterhouse will be bigger than it would be on a T-bone. Each cow will produce 6-7 T-bones, but only 2-3 porterhouses. They are bigger, and the are definitely more expensive, but they are also delicious. So if you're thinking fancy, gourmet meal, spring for the porterhouse.
