Description
Learn how to cook a Tomahawk Steak to perfection, creating a flavorful, juicy masterpiece.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 Tomahawk steak (about 2–3 pounds)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary (optional)
- 2 tablespoons butter (optional, for basting)
Instructions
- Prep the steak: Pat the Tomahawk steak dry with paper towels. Rub both sides with olive oil, then season generously with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Preheat the grill or pan: If grilling, preheat to high heat. For the stovetop, use a large cast-iron skillet and heat over medium-high heat.
- Cook the steak:
- For grilling: Place the steak on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Adjust time for desired doneness.
- For stovetop: Sear the steak for 4-5 minutes on each side. Add butter and rosemary at the last minute for extra flavor.
- Rest the steak: Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.
- Serve: Slice against the grain and serve with your favorite sides.
Notes
- For an extra crispy crust, you can finish the steak in a preheated oven at 400°F for 5-10 minutes.
- Adjust the seasoning to your personal taste; add more herbs or spices if desired.
