Ingredients for Slate-Grilled Porterhouse, Summer Vegetables, and Sourdough Bread

• 60ml olive oil plus more for slate

• 2 2-2 1/2"-thick porterhouse steaks (about 1.8kg total), room temperature

• 40g herbes de Provence

• ملح كوشير، فلفل مطحون طازج

• 3 small Italian aubergines (about 675g), halved lengthwise

• 6 small beefsteak tomatoes (about 900g ), halved crosswise

• 3 small courgette (about 450g ), halved lengthwise

• 3 portobello mushrooms (about 450g ), stems removed

• 2 large red peppers (about 450g ), cut lengthwise into 1 1/2" strips

• 6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced

• 1/3 cup fresh rosemary leaves

• 1/2 cup olive oil

• ملح كوشير، فلفل مطحون طازج

• 1 medium round loaf sourdough bread (about 675g), cut into 1" wedges

• 60 مل زيت زيتون

• 1 garlic clove, halved

• ملح كوشير

• Special equipment: A few 16x16" untreated natural slate floor tiles 1/4-1/3" thick (in case one breaks)

If using a charcoal grill, prepare for high heat. Place slate on grill grates and heat (don't worry if it splits or cracks; it can still be used). If using a gas grill, place slate on grates, then heat grill to high (cover grill while heating and grilling). Using paper towels and long-handled tongs, lightly coat slate with oil.

Sprinkle steaks with herbes de Provence and season with salt and pepper, pressing gently to adhere. Drizzle each steak with 2 tablespoons oil to moisten herbs. Grill on hot slate until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 46°C for medium-rare (the temperature will continue to rise as steaks rest), 10-15 minutes per side.

Transfer to a cutting board or platter and let rest 20 minutes before slicing.

If using a charcoal grill, coals should have cooled to medium heat. If using a gas grill, reduce heat to medium high.

Cut a small strip from rounded side of aubergine halves so they will lie flat. Combine aubergines, tomatoes, courgette, mushrooms, peppers, garlic, and rosemary on a rimmed baking sheet; drizzle with oil, season with salt and black pepper, and toss to coat. Place vegetables on slate and grill until browned and tender, 5-8 minutes per side. (Some vegetables may cook faster than others.) Transfer to a platter.

If using a charcoal grill, coals should still be around medium heat. If using a gas grill, keep heat at medium-high.

Drizzle both sides of each slice of bread with oil. Place bread on slate and grill until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a serving board or plate, rub both sides of bread with garlic, and season with salt.

Serve steaks with grilled vegetables and bread alongside.
