Tasty T-bones with Grilled Onions


T-bones are my absolute favorite cut of beef.  I like my T-bones thin and a little on the medium side.  The most important thing with any steak is to get a good cut of meat.  Watch the grain in the meat and make sure it has a small ratio of fat along the edges.  Believe it or not, a small amount of fat will add big flavor your T-Bones.  Enjoy!

Tasty T-bones with Grilled Onions

2 to 4 T-bone steaks
2 Tbsp. Soy sauce
2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup water
2 - 3 Tbsp. fresh ground pepper
1 Tbsp. real butter
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 whole white onion, thinly sliced

Mix Soy sauce, Worcestershire, pepper and water.  Dump into an extra large seal-type baggie.  Place T-bones in bag, seal and marinate in refrigerator for at least 2 hours.  Turn the bag occasionally to make sure all sides get marinated.

On griddle, place butter and olive oil.  Make sure it is hot and sizzling before you add your steaks.  Place steaks on griddle and cover with the sliced onions.  Cook on each side to desired consistency. 

Depending on the thickness of the steaks, you can use the following times: 

For a 1/2" steak, Rare would be 2 minutes on first side and 2 minutes on second side.

For a 1/2" steak, Medium Rare would be 3 minutes on first side and 2 to 3 minutes on second side.

For a 1/2" steak, Medium would be 3 to 4 minutes on each side.

For a 1/2" steak, Well Done would be approximately 8 to 9 minutes on each side.

Steaks frozen?  Not to worry, a frozen steak actually makes it get even more tender when cooked.  Just remember to start the griddle out on a lower heat and then raise the heat for the last few minutes.  You'll need to add a few minutes on lower heat before you turn the heat up a little and start counting the minutes.
