About this cut

What it is and how to use it

A T-bone is cut from the front part of the short loin. The T-shaped bone divides a strip steak from a smaller section of tenderloin. You get two textures in one steak: firm and beefy on one side, very tender and mild on the other. It is a classic for the grill, and the bone adds flavor.

Cook’s tipBecause the tenderloin side is smaller and leaner, point it away from the hottest coals. Cook to at least 145°F and rest three minutes.
