Bourbon Marinated T-Bones

Got these "skinny' T-Bones from the 2 CAB my BIL had processed.  The cows were only 1100-1200# so smallish.  They were processed into thinner cuts than I'd like, but the price was right.  And in reality, the portion sizes work for us.  Marinated 4 hours and cooked hot and fast on the MM.  Only 5 minutes and still got past MR.  Nice change of pace though.  Cheers.

    Hell yeah. Belly up and double marinate those. Once on the front end and then again in the belly.

    Cooking with bourbon...and on a Friday PM (and meat during lent)...you have hosed up any chance of redemption.  The devil is on his/her game.  
    Great looking but the proverbial "money shot?"  (Or saving that for later??)  =)

    Well done!  I got one and did it on the MM this week. Apparently T bone is my wife’s new favorite steak (and I have avoided them for years)

    Cap, the devil is in the details ;).  And the money shot is in my belly.  You know what it looked like.

    haven't hear the term "cap" since I retired.  It was a common term in my past workplace. 

    Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent.

    @bucky925 - I have no idea of how "cap" relates to your prior life in the RR empire.  My exposure was with a sailor background and all the learning and world experiences that come with it (did I mention tattoos as well-and sober every time??)  Have a great Friday-

    Marinade was 1:1 bourbon and Worchestershire, minced garlic, minced shallot, salt and pepper.  Nice variance from routine.

    @bgebrent - no doubt you likely used top-shelf bourbon for the marinade with little to no thought about the missed opportunities.  =)  At least I hope the final quantity could best be described as minimalist at least regarding bourbon.  You may need an intervention  ;)

    Looks good, Brent.  I'll bet those steaks weren't the only things "bourbon marinated"...

    Porterhouse or Tbone, thick or thin, it is impossible to beat. The marinade looks to be delicious, and I am sure the meal was.
    I have a book on marinades, I have used for some meals, but the marinade you used, for beef,  is compelling to try.
    As always, great post, beautiful images, and excellent instructions.
    Thank you for posting, and making me a better cook.

    Nothing too expensive.  The brand I used I was gifted and is not one of my favorites.  It only takes 1/2 cup to marinate 2-3 steaks.  I'd pick something you'd serve Buffalo Trace.  Have fun and thanks.
