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

Ingredients

  • 1tomahawk steak (removed from fridge and unwrapped about 30 minutes before cooking)
  • 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.
