Summer is the perfect time for firing up your grill and throwing on some juicy thick T-bone steaks. Topped with blue cheese butter, this cut of beef is a mouthwatering plate of deliciousness. It’s time to sit back on your shaded deck, relax and enjoy a delectable steak this evening. In my opinion, this is the true essence of Springtime! For weeks now, it seems there’s been an eternity of downpours and storms here in the Midwest. Finally, we’ve got a couple of days of sunshine but not for long I’m afraid. So, I’m taking full advantage of the break in the weather to grill up these amazing T-bones. The hunger within me increases and anticipation builds as the aroma of sizzling steaks emanates from my back deck. There’s a satisfying feeling when you become the envy of the neighborhood with the whiff of that undeniable smoky scent rising in the air. I LOVE this time of year! Why I love Grilled T-Bone Steaks:Grilling keeps the heat out of the kitchen when the weather turns hot. I find that most of my meals during the summer months consist of some kind of grilling. Not only does it keep my house cool, but the clean-up from grilling is pretty much non-existent. Which is always a WIN for me! There’s plenty of marbling with a T-bone steak which gives it flavor and juiciness. It requires no fancy marinade. The gorgeous fatty streaks in these steaks create natural juices which result in an amazing burst of grilled flavor. Never ruin a really good steak by additional rubs or seasonings. It’s just unnecessary. Grilled steaks are super simple and can be on the table in 20-25 minutes. There’s nothing complicated in grilling steaks. A little bit of salt and pepper, a little tossing and turning on a hot grill, a little bit of resting time. And there you got it, a simply exquisite piece of meat with every bite giving you a satisfying culinary experience. How to Choose the best T-Bone Steak

Here’s a good “internal” temperature chart showing when you should remove the steaks (according to how you prefer them). For rare – 120-130°F internal temperature One of the Most Important Steps to Grilling Steaks – Resting TimeGrilled steaks need time to rest before cutting into them. Once you remove the steaks from the grill, place them on a plate and add the dollops of blue cheese butter. Cover them with foil. Let them sit there for at least five minutes and ten is even better. Whatever you do, don’t miss this step. It’s what holds all the juices in the meat. Otherwise, if you slice it too quickly all the liquid runs out. Perfect Sides to complement a Grilled T-Bone SteakWhile you have steaks on the grill, throw some asparagus stalks beside them and pull both of them off together. Add a side of quinoa alongside it and there you have it, a really simple meal in less than 20 minutes. Check out this asparagus idea –Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus Bundles. Roasted Rainbow Carrots are a side dish that goes well with grilled steaks as well. They are not only gorgeous in appearance but they bring a healthy aspect to any dinner table. Another side dish that is both healthy and colorful is these Roasted Veggies with garlic and herbs. The flavors and textures of this dish are a delightful addition to these T-bones. But the most enjoyable addition to these Grilled T-Bone Steaks is a glass of dry, full-bodied red wine. I would go with either cabernet or merlot. Malbec from Argentina is a great choice as well.
