Print Recipe

A quick and easy recipe for perfectly grilled T-bone steaks topped with rich garlic butter, delivering a smoky char and buttery richness ideal for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 T-bone steaks (1 to 1.5 inches thick, about 12–16 oz each)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 large garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the garlic butter: In a small mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and lemon juice (if using). Mix well until smooth and set aside.
  2. Preheat your grill: Light your grill and bring it up to medium-high heat, roughly 450-500°F (232-260°C). If using charcoal, wait until the coals are glowing red with a light layer of ash.
  3. Season the steaks: Pat the T-bone steaks dry with paper towels. Drizzle olive oil on both sides, then generously season with coarse sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
  4. Grill the steaks: Place the steaks on the grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes on the first side without moving them. Flip carefully using tongs and grill the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes for medium-rare (internal temp about 130°F / 54°C). Adjust timing for preferred doneness.
  5. Apply garlic butter: During the last minute of grilling, spread a generous dollop of the prepared garlic butter on top of each steak. Close the lid for a minute to let it melt into the meat.
  6. Rest the steaks: Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and tent loosely with foil. Let them rest for 5-7 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
  7. Serve and enjoy: Slice against the grain if desired, spoon extra garlic butter on top, and serve immediately with your favorite sides.

Notes

Let steaks come to room temperature before grilling for even cooking. Use tongs to flip steaks to keep juices inside. Add garlic butter in the last minute to avoid burning the garlic. Rest steaks after grilling to keep them juicy. For indoor cooking, use a cast-iron skillet or broiler as alternatives.
