The tomahawk steak comes from the primary rib, situated under the front section of the backbone on the cow. It consists of two muscles outside of the steer’s rib cage that run along both sides of the spine. It is also the main muscle used in T-bone and Porterhouse steaks. These muscles aren’t utilized as much as others which means they are particularly tender and soft. When cooked, the abundance of intramuscular fat mixes with the flavor released from the large bone to give its sweet, rich, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Preferred cooking method: Grilling is always best but you can also pan sear them and then put them in an oven.

Preferred seasoning: we just use salt and black pepper. However, feel free to try a BBQ sauce of your choice!

Gaucho tips:

1. Use 1 teaspoon of coarse kosher salt per pound of meat
2. Thaw your steak completely before you cook it to ensure even cooking
3. Let the meat rest 5-10 minutes before cutting into it.

Fun Fact: “Frenching” means trimming the bone of meat and fat to the point where it looks like a handle.
