Best Cooking Methods
Bring out the indulgence of the ICON XB Wagyu Porterhouse with these expert cooking techniques that highlight its buttery marbling and rich depth of flavour.
1. Pan-Seared Medallions – Golden and Luxurious
Cut into medallions, season simply, and sear each side in a hot cast-iron pan for 3–4 minutes. Rest before serving. This technique creates a golden crust, deep marbling, and irresistibly tender centre.
2. Charcoal Grilled – Smoky Indulgence
Cook thick steaks over glowing charcoal, allowing gentle flames to enhance richness as the marbling renders. Smoky depth builds gradually, complementing Wagyu’s natural intensity. Slice thick and serve with herbs for an authentic steakhouse experience worth remembering.
3. Oven Roasted – Refined Centrepiece
Roast the porterhouse whole at 200°C until the outer crust crisps and caramelises. Rest thoroughly before slicing to reveal luscious tenderness and evenly distributed marbling. This method delivers a refined centrepiece ideal for celebrations and entertaining.
4. Reverse Sear – Precision and Control
Slow roast at low heat until nearly complete, then finish with a sear in a smoking hot pan or grill. This ensures even doneness, caramelised exterior, and luxuriously juicy Wagyu indulgence throughout every bite.
5. Sous Vide – Precision Luxury
Vacuum-seal and cook sous vide at 54°C for 2–3 hours, then sear to finish. This approach guarantees consistency, precise tenderness, and melt-in-the-mouth indulgence, showcasing Wagyu’s buttery richness in every perfectly prepared slice.
