If you are chasing impact, richness, and presence on the plate, this is the cut that delivers.
What Makes a Tomahawk Steak Unique
A tomahawk is essentially a bone-in ribeye, but the extended rib bone transforms it into something special. The bone helps retain moisture during cooking while adding depth to the final flavour.
Key characteristics include:
- Thick-cut ribeye with long rib bone attached
- Natural marbling for juiciness and richness
- Excellent heat retention during cooking
- Striking presentation for sharing and carving
This cut is about indulgence without compromise.
Bold Flavour with Serious Marbling
Tomahawk steaks are prized for their rich intramuscular fat, which melts slowly during cooking to deliver a juicy, beef-forward bite. Whether grass-fed or grain-fed, the rib section provides a balance of tenderness and depth that suits high-heat cooking.
Expect:
- Robust beef flavour
- Succulent texture from generous marbling
- A clean finish that rewards simple seasoning
Salt, heat, and time are all this steak needs.
How to Cook a Tomahawk Steak Properly
Tomahawks reward patience and control. Because of their size and thickness, they are best cooked using a two-stage method.
Recommended approach:
- Bring steak to room temperature before cooking
- Sear hard over high heat to form a crust
- Finish with indirect heat or in the oven
- Rest well before slicing across the grain
This method ensures even doneness and maximum juiciness.
Perfect for BBQs, Celebrations, and Sharing
Tomahawk steaks are designed to be shared. One cut comfortably feeds two to three people, making it ideal for gatherings, celebrations, or premium weekend meals. Carved at the table, it delivers both flavour and experience.
It is not just a steak, it is an event.
