Piedmontese Steaks on Father's Day

For Father's Day we special ordered Piedmontese steaks which aren't easy to come by. Lucky for us we were able to get 3 of these beautiful Porterhouse steaks (see attached pic). Though expensive, absolutely worth it. What makes Piedmontese beef unique is that it is actually quite lean yet is incredibly tender. This breed comes from Northern Italy in the Piedmonte region. There is a small number of these cattles living in the US. Check out http://www.piedmontese.org/.

This was one of the better steaks we've had...seasoned with salt, pepper, olive oil, soy sauce and hot pepper flakes. We grilled on high heat, charred on outside and rare on the inside.
