T-Bone and Taters. Good food.

Not much complication, but a genuine good dish for a saturday. I still had a nice little T-Bone steak in the freezer, and decided to prep that. I wanted something nice and simple, since I didn’t have that much time today.

I’ve marinated the steak using a simple yet effective way.

Just used the following.

  • 5 tablespoons of olive oil
  • pepper
  • salt
  • 2 cloves of garlic, not too finely cut up.

I’ve put that all in a ziplock bag, with the defrosted steak and let that rest in the fridge for about 2 hours.

Meanwhile I’ve sliced up some potatoes and heated up my skillet with some olive oil. I’ve baked the potatoes and just added some dried italian herbs and some salt to it. Simple yet effective.

Meanwhile I’ve heated up my WGA with some charcoal and waited until it was searing hot. Just do both sides of the T-Bone for about 60 seconds and then move it to indirect and close the lid. For a red steak, use about 4- 6 minutes, depending on the thickness of the steak and for medium, use about 7 – 9 minutes indirect. Great steak. I’ve covered it in aluminium foil for about 5 minutes before serving and eating. Loved it with a glass of rosé wine.
