Remember to remove your beef tomahawk
steak out of the packaging, pat dry and bring to room
temperature.
Pre heat your griddle or heavy based frying pan until it
sizzles when you add a drop of oil.
Season the meat just prior to cooking.
Don't overcrowd the cooking base.
Place the steak on the fat to render before searing on the flat
sides.
Cook over high heat turning the steak only once after a rich,
golden crust has formed, reducing heat to medium when crust has
formed.
Cook 8 to 9 minutes first side the 6 to 7 minutes on the
reverse side for medium rare.
Alternatively you can pop the tomahawk in the pre heated oven
215°C after searing all over for 12 to 15 minutes
approximately.
Finish by adding a large knob of butter when frying or on the
griddle.
Leave to rest in a warm place at least 10 minutes before
carving.
The meat will become more firm as it cooks, gently press with
your thumb, the more spring back you get the hotter the protein
cells have expand which means the more well done your meat is, for
a medium rare steak it should have a soft feel with a little spring
back.
