Pork T-Bone
Full product description
Get the best of both worlds with the pork T-bone—a juicy loin steak on one side and a tender fillet (tenderloin) on the other, split by the classic T-shaped bone. It sears to a deep golden crust, finishes quickly, and stays succulent when rested. Keep it simple with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon, or brush with garlic, mustard and herbs. Perfect for the pan, under the grill or on the BBQ.

How to cook (quick guide)
-
Bring to room temp; pat dry. Season well (salt, pepper; add garlic, mustard or herbs if you like).
-
Pan + optional oven: Sear in a hot pan 2–3 mins per side; stand the fat edge to render. For thick steaks, finish at 180°C (fan 160°C) 4–8 mins.
-
Grill/BBQ: High heat 2–4 mins per side, then move to indirect heat to finish. Lid on helps.
-
Centre temps (guide): Juicy 63–65°C (a faint blush is normal), or 70°C+ for well done.
-
Rest 5–8 mins before serving.
Tip: The fillet side cooks quicker—angle the loin closer to the heat to keep the fillet just blushing.

FAQs
Pork T-bone vs regular chop—what’s the difference?
A T-bone includes both loin and tenderloin sections divided by the T-shaped bone.
Can it be slightly pink?
Yes—pull at ~63–65°C and rest for juicy results.
Do I need to marinate it?
Not essential. Salt, pepper and high heat are great; mustard, garlic and herbs are a bonus.
Best way on the BBQ?
Sear over high heat, then finish over indirect heat to target temperature. Rest well.
