T-bone steak with crispy baby potatoes, fried eggs and herb butter
BBQ T-bone steak with a cast-iron skillet and herb butter
Preparing a T-bone steak on the BBQ is one of the best ways to showcase meat. By first slowly cooking the steak indirectly and then briefly grilling it at a high temperature, you get a perfectly pink result with a powerful grilled flavor. In this recipe, we combine the T-bone steak with crispy baby potatoes and fried eggs, prepared in a cast-iron skillet on the BBQ.
Cast iron is ideal for outdoor cooking. A cast-iron skillet retains heat, ensures even cooking, and gives potatoes that characteristic crispy crust. Serving everything in one pan keeps the food warm and gives the dish a robust, outdoor look.
The homemade herb butter with garlic, fresh herbs, and spices melts slowly over the warm steak, enhancing the flavor of the meat without overpowering it. This recipe is ideal for barbecue enthusiasts, outdoor cooking, and cast-iron cooking, and shows you how to create an impressive BBQ dish with simple ingredients.
