Tomahawk Steak from Wiltshire Country Fayre
The Tomahawk steak is a show-stopping cut of beef known for its impressive size and flavour. This 900g Tomahawk steak features a long, frenched bone, giving it its distinctive appearance, similar to a Native American tomahawk axe. The cut is taken from the rib section, just like the ribeye, but with the entire bone left intact, which adds to its dramatic presentation.
What is a Tomahawk Steak?
A Tomahawk steak is essentially a ribeye steak with the bone left in, offering a substantial, flavour-packed cut with a rich, buttery taste. The bone helps insulate the meat during cooking, making it more tender and flavourful.
Why is Tomahawk Steak So Expensive?
Tomahawk steak is often more expensive than other cuts due to its size and the meticulous preparation required to retain the long bone. The extra weight and impressive presentation also add to its premium price tag.
Is Tomahawk Steak Better Than Ribeye?
Tomahawk steak offers the same rich flavour as a ribeye since both are cut from the same section. However, the presentation and bone-in feature make the Tomahawk steak a more dramatic and visually appealing choice, perfect for special occasions.
Is Tomahawk Steak Tender or Tough?
Tomahawk steak is known for its tenderness and marbling, which keeps the meat juicy and full of flavour. When cooked correctly, it delivers a succulent, melt-in-the-mouth experience.
What’s the Best Way to Cook a Tomahawk?
For the best results, cook the Tomahawk steak using a combination of searing and roasting. Start by searing the steak over high heat to develop a crust, then finish it in the oven to your preferred level of doneness. Let it rest before serving to ensure maximum juiciness and tenderness.
