This show-stopping steak combines generous marbling, natural tenderness and deep beef flavour, making it ideal for celebrations, barbecue feasts and premium home dining.
Raised in coastal regions influenced by clean ocean air and nutrient-rich pastures, this tomahawk delivers a flavour profile that reflects both environment and careful animal husbandry. It is a cut designed for those who want visual impact without sacrificing eating quality.
What Makes Bass Strait Tomahawk Ribs Special
This tomahawk stands apart through its origin, structure and flavour intensity.
Coastal pasture systems produce beef with distinctive depth and mineral character. A strict grass-fed, free-range program allows flavour to develop naturally, while the bone-in format enhances moisture retention and richness during cooking.
The result is a steak that performs as impressively on the grill as it looks on the plate.
Understanding the 12-Inch Tomahawk Cut
The tomahawk is a ribeye left on the long frenched rib bone.
This cut includes the ribeye muscle and surrounding fat, delivering excellent marbling and a juicy texture. The extended bone adds visual appeal while helping regulate heat during cooking, which supports even doneness and flavour development.
At approximately 12 inches from bone tip to edge, this cut is designed to be the centrepiece of the meal.
Taste and Texture Profile
Expect bold, beef-forward flavour with a rich, savoury finish.
Grass-fed fats deliver subtle sweetness and depth rather than heaviness. As the steak cooks, the marbling renders gradually, basting the meat and producing a juicy, flavour-packed bite.
Texture is tender yet substantial, offering the perfect balance between chew and melt-in-the-mouth richness.
Best Cooking Methods
This tomahawk responds best to confident, controlled techniques:
-
Reverse sear: Slowly bring the steak close to target doneness, then finish over high heat for a deep crust and even interior.
-
Grilling: Sear directly over hot coals, then move to indirect heat to finish gently.
-
Smoking: Low temperature smoking builds flavour while keeping the meat exceptionally tender.
-
Cast iron searing: Ideal for achieving a strong crust before oven finishing.
Always rest the steak after cooking to allow juices to redistribute.
Nutrition and Wellness Benefits

- High-quality protein: Supports muscle repair, recovery, and satiety for active lifestyles.
