My husband recently traveled to Italy and loved the bistecca fiorentino and asked if I could make it. I looked at several recipes but none seemed quite right and were complicated. This recipe was easy and fabulous!! Thanks Giada! I'll make it again...my husband's suggestion was to add a touch of crushed rosemary to the seasonings...let me know if anyone tries it.

Such a simple dish with great flavors. This really is a dish that allows a good cut of meat to show its flavors without adding additional sauces or condiments.




Unbelievable Flavor!

This is so easy to prepare and cook that anyone could do it. The touch of lemon juice and EVOO help this steak to melt in your mouth.

This meal was wonderful and the vegetables turned out great!! The only problem I had with this recipe was the meat. I cooked it to a medium temperature but the bone caused it to continue cooking to a med well to well done temp. I will make this again but I'll shorten the cooking time!!

Thanks Giada for this sumptious way to grill steak and veggies. The whole family loved it although they would prefer their own steaks! Have made several times and it's always a hit. Giada you provide easy, great-tasting meals that are always crowd pleasers. Keep up the great work!

Okay, when I saw Giada make this my mouth was watering, and I knew I had to make it, but was sure it wouldn't come out looking as great as hers, or tasting as good as it LOOKS! But oh my goodness, it was amazing!!!!!!!! I can definitely see how the salting/rubbing garlic ahead of time really adds to the flavor. I prepared all the grilled veggies as well, which were SO lovely and the absolute perfect accompaniment. I've made this several times in the last couple weeks already! Definitely go for the thickness of steaks that she mentions, and I for one love the lemon juice addition as well. I don't know why some other reviewers refused to try that, because it's not something you do in hardly any other beef dish I know of, so why not just try it this way for this? GIADA THANK YOU!!!!!!!! You are amazing!




Wonderful

I used a thick cut sirloin instead of the T-Bone. I sliced thinly with an electric knife after cooking. Marinated with the salt, pepper, and fresh crushed garlic overnight. Any cut of steak - sirloin, T-Bone, porter house, rib eye, will do.




Very nice

Got my t-bones on sale and prepared this dish for guests. What a hit! The flavors of the meat and vegies were excellent. With the leftover vegies we will have sandwiches tomorrow!

It was so easy to make and the flavor was great. I made a steak salad instead of putting it on the grilled veggies, and it was tasted good that way too.

This was very juicy and the garlic/salt/pepper was the perfect simple combination to bring out the flavor of the meat. The wait before serving did make the flavors sink in, but possibly at the expense of the temperature.

I really like this recipe, and I'm not a meat lover. The simplicity and lightness of this dish makes it perfect for outdoor dining. It's pretty hard to mess up this recipe, although in my haste to plate everything I forgot the final step with the lemon juice- but no one noticed or cared. Best of all, the leftovers are great for a cold lunch the next day.




Great

Lemon juice is a terrible thing to do to a gorgeous grilled steak. Veggies yes - beef no.




Excellent flavors!

Depending on size of t-bones, make certain you look at time to cook them. All put together - grilled vegetables and steak - all was excellent - flavors all combined to make it even better!! highly recommended!!

I've had some really good steaks, but this steak was up there-cooked it med rare. The seasoning for an hour prior to cooking really makes a difference. Love how the meat carmelizes and browns..leaving the steak for 10 mins so the juices could distribute nicely also made a difference. And the lemon juice...MMMMM! This is the perfect dinner to show off your skills!! Excellent!
