A T-bone steak is a premium cut of beef featuring a T-shaped bone with meat on both sides, typically seasoned and pan-seared or grilled. It's generously topped with a compound butter made from softened butter, minced garlic, and fresh herbs like parsley, thyme, or rosemary, which melts over the hot steak to create a rich, aromatic sauce. This classic dish is a staple of American steakhouse cuisine, with roots in traditional Western grilling and butchery.
