The Outback Steakhouse Smoked Porterhouse is being offered as a complexly flavored menu item from the restaurant brand for patrons to try out as a decidedly elevated take on a classic. The meal consists of New York striploin and filet tenderloin cuts cooked to perfection before being smoked to give them a decidedly aromatic flavor profile. The steak comes served under a dome with smoke to further enhance the dramatic serving of the meal when arriving at the patron's table.
The Outback Steakhouse Smoked Porterhouse is only available as a dine-in option and is arriving at participating locations for a limited time only. The meal takes inspiration from fare traditionally found at high-end restaurants and is likely to be a hit amongst consumers seeking an artisan option to enjoy.
