Ingredients Needed

How to Make Air Fryer T Bone Steak

Step One: Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature, about 15-20 minutes.

Step Two: Rub olive oil over the steaks, then season with salt and black pepper to taste. Preheat air fryer temperature to 400 degrees F (205°C) for 3-5 minutes.

Step Three: Place the seasoned steaks in the air fryer basket or tray. Set the air fryer cook time for 8-10 minutes, flipping the steaks halfway through the cooking time for even crisping.

Step Four: Once the cooking time is up, remove the steaks from the air fryer and let them rest for about 4 minutes before serving.

Step Five: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter and Gorgonzola cheese. Mix well to combine. Place the rested steaks on plates and top with slices of Gorgonzola butter. Enjoy your delicious meal!

Air Fryer T Bone Steak Recipe Tips

• Bring Steak to Room Temperature: Allow the steak to come to room temperature before cooking to ensure even cooking and a tender result.
• Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheating your air fryer ensures consistent temperature and even cooking, helping the steak achieve a crispy, golden crust.
• Flip the Steak Halfway: Flip the steak halfway through the cooking process to ensure it cooks evenly and develops a nice sear on both sides.
• Use a Meat Thermometer: For the best results, use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. Aim for 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium, and 150°F for well-done.
• Let the Steak Rest: After cooking, allow the steak to rest for 4-5 minutes. This helps redistribute the juices for a juicier, more flavorful steak.
• Customize the Seasoning: Feel free to adjust the seasoning with your favorite spices or add a steak rub for extra flavor.
• Try Different Butters: Top the steak with flavored butters, like garlic butter or herb butter, for added richness and flavor.
• Cook Time Adjustments: Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the steak. Thicker cuts may require slightly more time in the air fryer.

Air Fryer T Bone Steak Temperature

The best way to ensure your T bone in the air fryer is fully cooked is by using a meat thermometer. Insert it into the thickest part of the steak, avoiding the bone, to check the internal temperature.

The USDA Food Drug and Safety Administration  provides the following guidelines for steak doneness:

• T Bone Steak Air Fryer Rare Temperature: 125 degrees F
• T Bone Steak Air Fryer Medium Temperature: 135 degrees F to 145 degrees F.
• T Bone Steak Air Fryer Well Done Temperature: 155 degrees F.
• T Bone Steak Air Fryer Well Done Temperature: 160 degrees F.

What To Serve With Air Fry T Bone Steak

When serving Air Fryer T-Bone Steak, you have plenty of delicious side options to complement its rich, savory flavor. For a classic pairing, serve it with creamy mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables like asparagus or Brussels sprouts.

A fresh salad with a tangy vinaigrette or a side of garlic bread also works beautifully. If you’re craving a hearty addition, consider serving the steak with mac and cheese or a baked potato for an extra indulgent meal.

Air Fry T Bone Steak Recipe Faqs

How do I know when the steak is done? The best way to check for doneness is by using a meat thermometer. Aim for 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium, and 150°F for well-done.

Should I marinate the steak? While marinating is optional, it can enhance the flavor. You can marinate the steak for a few hours or overnight in a simple mix of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and seasonings for extra taste.

Can I cook frozen T-bone steaks in the air fryer? Yes, you can cook frozen T-bone steaks, but you’ll need to increase the cooking time by a few extra minutes. Be sure to check the internal temperature for accuracy.

How do I get a crispy crust on the steak? For a crispy crust, pat the steak dry with paper towels before seasoning and cooking. Also, preheating the air fryer helps create a better sear.

Can I use oil for a crispy finish? Lightly spraying the steak with oil before air frying will help achieve a crispier crust. However, it’s not necessary if you’re following a no-oil approach.

How long should I rest the steak after cooking? Let the steak rest for 4-5 minutes after cooking. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a tender and juicy result.

Can I add flavoring or butter to the steak after cooking? Absolutely! Top the steak with compound butter, garlic butter, or your favorite steak sauce for an extra layer of flavor.
