Make it at home
The steakhouse porterhouse, with creamed spinach
1 hour 15 minutes, plus 1 to 24 hours salting · Serves 2 to 3. How New York's old steakhouses do it at home: a thick porterhouse salted ahead, seared hard in cast iron, finished in a hot oven, rested, sliced off the bone and sent back to the table sizzling in butter, with the creamed spinach every steakhouse puts beside it.
