A grilled Tomahawk Steak is impressive to serve to company, though is simple to make with just three ingredients.

Ingredients

  • tomahawk steak

    removed from fridge and unwrapped about 30 minutes before cooking

    1
  • salt & pepper
    to taste

Directions

  1. 1

    Heat grill on highest setting (or prepare charcoal grill).

  2. 2

    Pat steak dry with paper towels, then season with salt (and pepper, if desired).

  3. 3

    Sear steak on high heat (or over hottest zone of charcoal grill) for 3-5 minutes per side, doing a quarter turn halfway through for nice grill marks - you want to yield a nice crust here.

  4. 4

    Reduce heat to medium (or move steak to indirect heat on charcoal grill (to the side away from direct heat; or over ash-covered coal)). Cook steak for 10-25 minutes, flipping once, to 5°F below desired internal temperature (exact cooking time will depend on size/thickness and desired doneness - a meat thermometer is highly recommended! see notes for guidance).

  5. 5

    Once steak reaches desired internal temperature, remove to a plate and tent with aluminium foil. Allow steak to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to serve. Internal tempreature will rise about 5°F per 5 minutes of resting.

Reverse-Seared Steak

Reverse-Seared Steak

Reverse-searing is a grilling technique for steak that ensures a dark, sizzling crust and a rosy center that is perfectly cooked to your desired degree of doneness. This brilliant grilling method combines the low and slow cooking of traditional barbecue with the high heat charring practiced at steakhouses. Though it works well with any thick steak, from picanha to porterhouse, this recipe calls for a cut of steak popularized in Santa Maria, Calif., and is today known and loved across the U.S. as tri-tip. As the name suggests, it’s a triangular or boomerang-shaped steak cut from the tip of the sirloin, blessed with a robust beefy flavor.
