Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Remove the Tomahawk steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 1 hour. This ensures even cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Generously season both sides of the steak with kosher salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add olive oil to the skillet if using.

  4. 4

    Sear the Steak

    Place the steak on the grill or skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until a nice crust forms.

  5. 5

    Add Aromatics

    During the last few minutes of cooking, add butter and fresh rosemary to the pan. Baste the steak with the melted butter.

  6. 6

    Check for Doneness

    Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature, aiming for 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare.

  7. 7

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.

  8. 8

    Carve and Serve

    Carve the steak tableside and serve with your favorite sides.
