FAQs about T-bone steak
Like most beef cuts, you want to find bright red flesh. Look for a T-bone steak with a large tenderloin portion as this piece commands the highest price when sold separately. The strip steak side should have good marbling.
Strip steaks can have a thick vein of gristle or chewy fat that runs along the outer edge and should be trimmed off before cooking. Sometimes, this gristle can turn into the center of the strip rather than run along the outside. The gristle will be dark gray and firm, easily spotted and avoided. It would be best to avoid any T-bone steaks with gray spots as these indicate age and possible spoilage.
Most consumers buy the T-bone steak for immediate consumption. However, you can keep the T-bone steak in your refrigerator for several days without it spoiling. For more extended storage, you can put your T-bone steaks in vacuum-sealed containers and keep them in your freezer for four to six weeks or longer.
You can, but the prevailing wisdom when cooking most steaks says to let them rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking. This resting at room temperature allows for more even cooking. The fibers in a cold T-bone steak can tense up when put on heat, causing them to be tougher, regardless of temperature.
