🔥 RECIPE – PREMIUM SIMMENTHAL TOMAHAWK ON THE BBQ
(approximately 1–1.2 kg and around 5 cm thick)
Ingredients
- 1 Premium Simmenthal Tomahawk
- Coarse sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
Optional:
- 50 g butter
- 2 sprigs rosemary
- 2 crushed garlic cloves
Step 1 – Preparation
- Remove the Tomahawk from the refrigerator at least 2 hours before cooking.
- Pat the surface dry.
- Season generously with coarse sea salt.
- Allow the meat to come to room temperature.
Because of its thickness, a Tomahawk requires more preparation time than a regular steak.
Step 2 – Reverse Sear
- Preheat the BBQ or kamado to 110°C.
- Place the Tomahawk on the indirect side of the grill.
- Insert a temperature probe into the thickest section.
- Close the lid.
Cook slowly until the internal temperature reaches approximately 46°C.
For a Tomahawk around 5 cm thick, this generally takes 45 to 70 minutes.
Step 3 – High Heat Finish
- Remove the steak temporarily.
- Increase the BBQ temperature to 250–300°C.
- Sear each side for approximately 60 seconds.
- Sear the fat edge as well.
This creates a beautiful crust while keeping the interior perfectly pink.
Step 4 – Optional Flavor Boost
During the final minute, add butter, rosemary and garlic.
Allow the butter to melt and continuously baste the steak.
Step 5 – Resting
- Rest the Tomahawk for at least 10 minutes.
- Remove the meat from the bone.
- Slice thinly across the grain.
