Tomahawk Steak
Full product description
Make a statement with a tomahawk steak—a thick-cut bone-in ribeye with an extra-long, frenched rib bone for dramatic presentation. Expect buttery marbling, a deep, beefy flavour and a superb crust when it meets high heat. It’s perfect for a reverse sear or BBQ: cook gently to temperature, then finish with a fierce sear. Rest well, carve off the bone and slice for sharing. Steakhouse theatre at home.

FAQs
Tomahawk vs cowboy—what’s the difference?
Both are bone-in ribeye; the tomahawk has a much longer bone “handle” for presentation.
Do I need to marinate it?
Not necessary—salt, pepper and high heat are plenty. Finish with a butter baste if you like.
Can one steak feed two?
Often yes—these are thick-cut and great for sharing after a proper rest.
How do I avoid a grey band?
Use the reverse sear: cook gently to temp, then sear hot at the end.
