The giant Tomahawk Steak is one of the most visually impressive cuts of meat that money can buy. It's carved from the beef rib (ribs 6–12) with the extra-long rib bone left intact.

There are many ways to cook a tomahawk steak — reverse sear, cast iron, or oven finish. We recommend hanging it in your charcoal grill or smoker for a full 360º heat experience.

For best results, bring the steak to room temperature before cooking. Pull at 120º–125º for medium rare and allow it to rest before serving.

RECIPE NOTE

You don’t need USDA Prime to achieve steakhouse results — the Pit Barrel® cooking method ensures excellent results even with USDA Select or Choice cuts.

While salt and pepper work, the Beef & Game Pit Rub enhances flavor for a deeper, richer steak experience.

Using a hinged grate allows you to cook sides while hanging your steak — perfect for a full grilled meal.
