Angus Porterhouse reverse seared and served "Steak Oscar" style

[Smokerjunky]

That steak looks excellent - incredible marbling on that thing - nice to see the raw chunk first.  Great cook and great shots.

Would you believe it was $6.99 a pound?  Local grocer had em on sale.  It's supposed to be "high choice" Angus but based on the marbling I'd say it's more like Prime Angus. 

I forgot to mention in the OP that I dry brined the steak overnight using kosher salt.

I have never seen meat that nice in any of our local grocery stores.  Seem to only be able to find it at Costco in the "Prime" section and T-Bones are hard to find.

Never heard of a "Steak Oscar" before but now I've got to try it. That is one fabulous looking meal.

I'll ask the wife for the bernaise sauce and crab recipe(s) that she used.

That will be much appreciated.

Here's the recipe for the bearnaise sauce http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/bearnaise-sauce-395049

The crab was warmed in a skillet with butter for 3-4 minutes then all assembled.  Steak, then crab, then sauce, then asparagus.

Asparagus was seasoned with EVOO, salt, pepper then grilled ten minutes until bendy.

Thanks. Looking forward to trying this soon. Need to pick up a nice thick steak at Costco first.

That's a nice gig!

Also sounds like y'all sold a lot of grills in 2014.  I spoke to Bob last week.  Tell him I said hey and stop by our little part of the forum sometime!
