Basil-Oregano T-Bone Steaks

What You'll Need:

2 T-Bone steaks, about 2 inches/5 cm thick
For wet rub:
1/4 cup/60 mL olive oil
1/3 cup/80 mL fresh chopped oregano leaves
4-5 fresh basil leaves, chopped
1 tablespoon/15 mL cider vinegar
1/2 to 1 tablespoon/7.5 to 15 mL sea salt, depending on size and flavor preference
1 teaspoon/5 mL onion powder
1/2 teaspoon/2.5 mL garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon/2.5 mL black pepper

How to Make It:

1.Preheat grill to a medium high heat.

2.For charcoal make a two layer fire, so you have a hot side and a medium side.

3.Combine wet rub ingredients and slather onto both sides of steak.

4.Let steaks sit for a few minutes.

5.Place steaks on a hot grill and cook for about 2 minutes per side, as long as there are good grill marks.

6.Reduce heat or move to the medium side of the grill.

7.Continue grilling for 10-12 minutes or until the steaks reach the desired doneness.

8.Once cooked, remove from heat and let steaks rest for at least 5 minutes.

9.Serve with your favorite sides. I recommend grilled vegetables.

NOTE-These delectable T-Bone steaks are rubbed with a basil-oregano mixture and placed onto the grill. The secret is a hot sear to give the steaks a rich brown color and the perfect crust before finishing them off at a lower temperature. This is important since these are very thick cut steaks.
