Well, the Braves may have banned the Tomahawk, but that didn't stop me tonight. Went to Costco to get a tri tip and they had prime grade rib eye tomahawks for $12 a pound.

OH, what?? You want pics of the actual cook?!?

Messed up and hit the submit button a minute ago. Here's the beef!

Good eats ahead

:D

Seasoned nicely

Finishing up on the Weber after smoking at 180

After resting, Still lost alot of juice....

Medium... Overshot Med Rare by a bit...

Dinner is served

I'm a bit disappointed that I slightly over-cooked it. That was partly the thermometer's fault (it's reading low), and partly my lack of experience with a piece of meat that thick (outside of brisket). All in all, not bad for a first time.

Yep reports of my demise were only slightly exaggerated, LOL.

Great Looking Weapon of Hunger there, Pal
What's Rambo talking about? Have you been Gone?

Have yet to try one of these yet, actually haven't even seen one of these cuts up this way.
Looks great man, I'm missing out for sure.

That’s a good looking steak that doubles as a weapon!

I've never had 1 of these either. But I see it's coming. There's a food truck not far from me, they sell these. Yours look bang on .

That looks pretty tasty to me.

[rms827]

Thanks All!

Russ, they're fairly rare everywhere since it's an expensive cut of meat. Worth it though. We split it in half and still ate like royalty.

If we do it again, I'll know the thickness of the steak won't affect it quite as much as I'd thought. I should add I did the usual routine and put it on the Rec-Tec before the Weber even though there was no pic on the smoker. I figured I'd get a more even cook on it being that thick and all. No smoke ring, but it had a bit of smoke flavor.

We love a good steak, mainly fillet but I'll try those next time. I serve with a steak Dianne garlic sauce.
