6 in thick PorterHouse Steak

[Johnny Guitar]

Any ideas on how to cook a 6 in thick porterhouse steak? Sunday dinner for family.

I think reverse sear. What temp would you cook at?

110 smoked then sear to 135.
Please post a lot of pictures!!!

So what cooking temp 225? Here is a picture of the steak. I am starting the defrost.. it is a 7 lbs, prime porterhouse. For all you guys out there, make a relationship with your butcher. I give mine sausage when I make it, he makes custom cuts when I ask. this all started when I asked him. About Steak Florentine

225 is where I would go. That’s low enough to get edge to edge uniformity of internal temperature. I’m jealous.

Oh, man I wish I could get something like that near me. I'll need to start dropping off goddies to the butcher. That looks awesome!

Ok - Last question if you have if it’s 7 lbs and the smoker is set to 220. i estimate ~2 hours to get to 115?

Not sure. I’d say that or less. If it’s right out of the fridge it will take longer than if it’s left out on the counter for an hour.

If it’s going too fast lower the temp a bit. If too slow bump it 15-25 degrees.

Game Day - Dry Brine and come to room temp. Start at 3:30 for a 6 pm dinner.
225f to 118. Then sear at 600.
