Cook it as you would cook any other steak. You can pan fry it if you
want. The lower the heat, the more well done you'll be able to get it.
For a medium 1 in thick, I'd probably cook over medium to medium low
heat - only turn it once or you lose ambient heat build up that
finishes the cooking - don't be afraid of a little black - think of
them as flavor nuggets. Let it rest 5 minutes off the fire to finish
cooking. It's a T-bone. Both sides don't get done to the same
tenderness. Just know that in advance. But, they do to the same
doneness.
