Sometimes known as a caveman steak or cowboy steak, the tomahawk ribeye steak is best served right on the cutting board. This massive steak is seasoned with rub and infused with butter and fresh herbs.
This steak is pretty pricey due to the unique butchering required, so make sure you cook it right and infuse it with flavor. Two-zone cooking gives it a nice sear with grill marks and lets it cook low and slow to the perfect internal temperature.
Though this steak is perfect on its own, you can also grill up some veggies as a side dish. Try roasting peppers, tomatoes, onions, or your favorite vegetable to serve alongside.
Place the tomahawk steak in the cool zone to slowly come to temperature after grilling.
This caveman-style serving of steak is a hearty and tasty meal.
The steak is first grilled over high heat to make nice hatch marks, then finished on the cool side of the grill.
During the final cooking step continully baste the tomahwk steak.
