Instructions
Set out steak on a cutting board. While preparing ingredients for the steak (about 15 minutes before cooking this t bone steak recipe), remove steak from the fridge. This will help bring it closer to room temperature.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Add seasonings for t-bones. Pat t bone steaks dry with a paper towel and season them all over (don’t forget the sides!) with steak rub or steak seasonings of your choice.
Prep a hot, oiled skillet. Add a large cast iron skillet to a burner on medium-high heat. Add olive oil. Once you have a nice, hot skillet (it will slightly start to smoke - turn on the oven fan for this recipe!), then you’re ready to add the t-bone steaks to the hot oil (stand back!).
Sear. Place both T-bone steaks in the cast iron pan and sear both sides for 2 minutes on each large, flat side. Next, sear the edges, what my husband calls the “fat sides” for 30 seconds. This is just to brown them with a little pan seared crust.
Cook t bone in oven. After the sear, move the cast iron pan into the preheated oven and cook for 5-7 minutes, flipping once halfway through until the internal temperature is about 5-10 degrees below your desired temperature. (In the Sip Bite Go video demonstration, we removed the steaks from the oven when they reached 135 degrees F for med-rare to medium t bone steaks.)
Rest t bone steaks. Remove cooked steaks from the oven and place them on a cutting board to rest for at least 10 minutes. During this time I recommend topping T-Bone steaks with the butter so it melts in and provides a little more flavor and juice.
Garnish steaks and enjoy. Cut the steaks off the bone, then in slices (see my guide to cutting t bone steak), or serve in a full piece. Top them with anything you’d like, such as fresh chopped Italian parsley, fresh cracked salt and pepper, or recommended steak sauces in the notes.
