The steak that stops the table.
The Texas Tomahawk is a bone-in ribeye with the full rib bone left long, the cut steakhouse chefs built their reputations on. The flavor is pure ribeye, deep marbling and a rich cap, and the bone makes it a centerpiece before the first slice is cut. Honest note: the bone is the show. The eating comes from the marbling, and this cut has plenty of both.
What a tomahawk is
A tomahawk is cut from the rib section, same as a ribeye, with the bone left long and cleaned. That makes it thick, usually around two inches, which is why it cooks differently from a standard steak: it needs a slower start and a hard sear to finish, so the center comes up gently while the crust does its work. One steer only gives a handful of these cuts, which is why they are not always in stock.

Cooking notes
Thaw in the refrigerator for 24 to 48 hours, a steak this size needs the time. Season well with salt and pepper. Reverse sear for the most control: roast or smoke low until the center reaches about 115 degrees, then sear hard over high heat to finish at 130 degrees for medium rare. Rest at least 10 to 15 minutes before slicing against the bone.

FAQs
How many people does a tomahawk feed?
Plan on the 38 to 45 oz steak for 2 to 3 people and the 46 to 54 oz for 3 to 4. The bone adds weight you do not eat, so think of it as a ribeye built for sharing.
How do I cook a steak this thick on a grill?
Use two zones. Start the steak over indirect heat until the center reaches about 115 degrees, then move it over the hottest part of the grill to sear both sides. That reverse sear keeps the inside evenly medium rare instead of raw in the middle and gray at the edges.
Why does a tomahawk cost more than a regular ribeye?
Size, the long bone, and hand cutting. Each steer yields only a few tomahawk cuts, and every one is cut and trimmed by hand in our butcher shop.
How does it ship, and how do I store it?
It ships frozen in insulated packaging and keeps in your freezer until the day before you cook it. Shipping is free on orders of $249 or more, and on orders of $149.99 or more in Texas and Oklahoma.
