Best Cooking Methods for Maximum Flavour
The Southern Ranges Porterhouse excels in high-heat cooking methods that bring out its natural richness.
1. Perfectly Grilled Porterhouse – Classic Steakhouse Experience
Grilling over high heat creates a delicious charred crust while keeping the inside succulent and tender. Cook on a hot grill (220°C) for 3-4 minutes per side, finishing with butter and fresh herbs for extra depth.
2. Reverse-Seared Porterhouse – Ultimate Tenderness & Crust
Start slowly at 120°C in the oven until it reaches 50°C internally, then sear in a smoking-hot cast-iron skillet for a golden-brown, crispy crust while maintaining a buttery-soft centre.
3. Pan-Seared Porterhouse – Quick & Delicious
For a fast, restaurant-quality meal, pan-sear the porterhouse in butter, garlic, and thyme, creating a rich caramelised crust. Rest for 5 minutes before slicing to retain its natural juices.
4. Sous Vide Porterhouse – Precision Cooking Perfection
Cook at 55°C for 1.5 hours, then sear at high heat for an even, edge-to-edge, medium-rare doneness with a perfect crust.
