PaulR Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 Just BBQ-ed some porterhouse steaks... Simple onion powder, garlic granules, pepper, salt, olive oil I have to say that the steaks were excellent, juicy and really much better than the ones I previously cooked (on gassers etc). LOVE MY KK!!!
leejp Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 Porterhouse??? In the US this is considered a porterhouse: What you have looks like what we refer to as the NY strip side, the other side of course is the filet. The bone-in porterhouse (my picture above) is one of my personal favorites. The strip for me and the filet for my wife. But at ~$15/lb we just do the porterhouse once in a while. I like mine cut 2" thick, rub with kosher salt+pepper, sear @ 6~700*F for 2 minutes on each side, turn down the cooker temp to ~350*F and cook until to ~125*F internal. Edited... From Wikipedia... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porterhouse_steak "in British usage, followed in Commonwealth countries, only the strip loin side is called the porterhouse, and the tenderloin side is called the fillet." That explains it...
Porkchop Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 dude, he's an aussie. they drive on the wrong side of the road, so of course their steak cuts will be all cockeyed what australian butcher is gonna call a steak a New York Strip? but, i guess those aussies must call them that; thats what they're called on the menu when i go to Outback Steakhouse btw, paul, those are new york strips they look wonderful, but i expected them to be shown upside down...
Sanny Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 btw' date=' paul, those are new york strips they look wonderful, but i expected them to be shown upside down... [/quote']I think they are underside up in the second pic, which would make sense. But they're not exactly upside down, you're right. Maybe it's a Sydney strip? Or a Brisb'n broil? Melb'n mouthful?
ThreeDJ16 Posted July 13, 2007 Report Posted July 13, 2007 Yeah buddy, you got robbed of the better half of a porterhouse steak and the bone! -=Jasen=-
Sanny Posted July 14, 2007 Report Posted July 14, 2007 Yeah buddy' date=' you got robbed of the better half of a porterhouse steak and the bone![/quote'] Prolly dingoes got it. You know how they can be. Pesky critters.
PaulR Posted July 14, 2007 Author Report Posted July 14, 2007 I'll take snappy of the packaging (which says: porterhouse).. Hmm kinda different ah well we call a beer a coldie and it still has the same great taste..
Sanny Posted July 14, 2007 Report Posted July 14, 2007 ... ah well we call a beer a coldie and it still has the same great taste.. But is it less filling?

PaulR Posted July 15, 2007 Author Report Posted July 15, 2007 Re: Porterhouse??? No wonder we declared independence! Yup otherwise you would have "half" of your porterhouse also and wouldn't even have known!!

No wonder we declared independence! First taxation without representation, and then they tried to pawn off a strip as a whole porterhouse! Next they'll try to serve us broiled tomatoes and canned beans on toast for breakfast!

Sanny Posted July 16, 2007 Report Posted July 16, 2007 Re: Porterhouse??? Ya reckon that was a british invention? I thought it was a kiwi one? Only time I ever had that was at a restaurant in China that served "western" food. Go figger...
jdbower Posted July 16, 2007 Report Posted July 16, 2007 Re: Porterhouse??? Although a fried egg on a burger is surprisingly tasty Ya reckon that was a british invention? I thought it was a kiwi one? I had it in Singapore first and was told by my fake Aussie boss (Kiwi in disguise) that it was a British thing. Of course I've also had it in Madrid but I don't think I've had it in the UK so who knows if he's right.
Porkchop Posted July 16, 2007 Report Posted July 16, 2007 Re: Porterhouse??? Although a fried egg on a burger is surprisingly tasty had one of those recently... crazy good! they called it a "pub burger"! i call it GOOD EATS (sorry AB!)
Firemonkey Posted July 16, 2007 Report Posted July 16, 2007 Me too. McDonalds messed up and put a hamburger patty on my sausage, egg and cheese biscuit
Curly Posted July 16, 2007 Report Posted July 16, 2007 Fried egg and burger Been eating those since I was a kid...thought it was my mama's country upbringing That's healthy too...anytime you add chicken (yes, eggs are made outta liquid chicken) in a recipe on a menu item, it gets the little heart insignia beside it.
