Grilling Thick Steaks - The Reverse Sear

Grilling Thick Steaks - The Reverse Sear
  • 1 (2 1/2 pound) 2-inch thick porterhouse steak, at room temperature
  • sea salt to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • hickory wood chips, soaked (optional)
  • olive oil


  1. Season steak generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
  2. Place wood chips in the smoker box of your gas grill according to manufacturer's instructions.
  3. Preheat one side of the grill to about 250 degrees F (121 degrees C).
  4. Place steak on the cool side of the grill. Cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads about 100 degrees F (37 degrees C), 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer steak to a plate. Brush with olive oil and cover with aluminum foil.
  5. Increase heat on the grill to 600 degrees F (315 degrees C) by turning both burners up to maximum.
  6. Cook steak until crust forms and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 125 degrees F (52 degrees C), about 3 minutes per side. Transfer steak back to plate. Cover with aluminum foil and let rest before serving, about 5 minutes.
