BEST STEAK

5. Tomahawk Steak

• Description: Essentially a ribeye steak with a long bone attached, making for a dramatic presentation. It has the same flavor profile as a ribeye.
• Cooking Method: Reverse searing is a popular method, where you first cook it in a low-temperature oven and then sear it on high heat.
• Tip: Due to its size, it’s important to let it rest longer, about 10-15 minutes, before slicing.

Cooking Tips for the Best Steak:

• Seasoning: Salt and pepper are often enough to enhance the natural flavors of the steak. Season well before cooking.
• Temperature: Take the steak out of the refrigerator about 30-60 minutes before cooking to ensure even cooking.
• Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to check for your preferred level of doneness. Rare is typically 120-130°F (49-54°C), Medium Rare 130-135°F (54-57°C), Medium 135-145°F (57-63°C), Medium Well 145-155°F (63-68°C), and Well Done above 155°F (68°C).
• Resting: Always let your steak rest after cooking to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it juicier and more flavorful.

Remember, the “best” steak will also depend on the quality of the meat. Opt for steaks from reputable sources, where the cattle have been ethically raised and fed, as this can significantly impact the flavor and texture of your steak.
