Porterhouse Steak With Hoisin Barbecue Sauce
Description
This recipe pairs a thick-cut Porterhouse steak with a complex, homemade hoisin barbecue sauce. The sauce balances sweet umami from hoisin and honey with the tang of rice wine vinegar and Dijon mustard, while ancho and pasilla chile powders add deep, smoky heat. The result is a tender, juicy steak with a rich, caramelized glaze that clings to every bite. It is an impressive yet manageable dish perfect for date nights or weekend family dinners.Ingredients
Directions
-
In a small saucepan, combine hoisin sauce, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, ketchup, Dijon mustard, dark brown sugar, honey, cayenne, Ancho chile powder, Pasilla chile powder, Worcestershire sauce, diced red onion, minced garlic, and diced plum tomatoes.
-
Simmer the sauce mixture over medium heat for 10-15 minutes until slightly thickened and the tomatoes have broken down.
-
Remove the sauce from heat and stir in unsalted butter until melted and glossy. Set aside.
-
Pat the Porterhouse steak dry with paper towels and season generously on all sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
-
Preheat a grill to high heat and lightly oil the grates.
-
Place the steak on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired internal temperature is reached.
-
During the last 2 minutes of cooking, baste the steak frequently with the hoisin barbecue sauce, allowing it to caramelize on the surface.
-
Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
-
Slice the steak against the grain and serve with remaining sauce on the side or drizzled over the top.
