4.6 from 100 reviews

A rich and flavorful Tomahawk steak grilled to perfection, seasoned simply with salt and pepper, and finished with a buttery touch to enhance its natural juiciness and robust beefy flavor.

Ingredients

Scale

Steak

  • 1 Tomahawk steak (about 22.5 pounds)

Seasoning

  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste

Finishing

  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  1. Season the Steak: Generously season the Tomahawk steak on both sides with salt and pepper to enhance the natural flavors of the beef.
  2. Preheat the Grill: Prepare your grill for direct heat cooking, ensuring it is hot enough to sear the steak properly.
  3. Grill the Steak: Place the steak on the grill and cook it over high heat until it reaches your desired level of doneness, turning once to get a good crust on both sides.
  4. Butter Finish: Once grilled, remove the steak from the heat and add butter on top to melt over the steak, infusing it with extra richness and flavor.
  5. Rest and Serve: Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use a meat thermometer to check doneness for perfect cooking: 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium.
  • Resting the steak is crucial to keep it juicy.
  • Optional: Add garlic or herbs to the butter for extra flavor.
  • Let the steak come to room temperature before seasoning for even cooking.
