Salt & Peppersalt-and-pepper
4 TBSP Butterbutter

Instructions (5 steps)

01Take out your steak 30 minutes or so before cooking to let it come to room temperature.
02Season generously with salt & pepper. Do not be shy with the salt- this is a big steak and it can handle it! Heat up your skillet over medium high heat until extremely hot.
03Add no more than a tablespoon of vegetable oil and allow it to heat to almost smoking. Add your steak seasoned side down and repeat salt & pepper on top side. Cook until a deep brown crust forms (do not turn!) for 4-5 min.
04Remove steak from skillet and place on a cutting board, turning it brown side up. Cut meat from bone (as close as you can get). Now, cut 1” segments perpendicular - or horizontal to the bone. Replace sliced steak, brown side up, and bone to the skillet (like a meat puzzle) and top with butter. Cook another 4-7 minutes. This should be about medium rare. You can check in-between slices for doneness.
05Remove from pan and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
