Ingredients
Scale
1 Tomahawk ribeye steak (2–3 inches thick)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced (optional)
Fresh rosemary or thyme sprigs (optional)
Instructions
Bring the Tomahawk ribeye steak to room temperature (1 hour).
Pat dry and rub with olive oil, salt, and pepper (and optionally garlic).
Preheat grill to high heat (450-500°F).
Grill steak over high heat for 5-6 minutes per side for medium-rare.
Use a meat thermometer: 125°F for rare, 135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium.
Remove from grill, tent with foil, and rest for 10-15 minutes.
Slice and serve.
Notes
Internal Temperature: For the most accurate doneness, use a meat thermometer. Insert it into the thickest part of the steak, avoiding the bone.
Resting Time: Letting the steak rest is crucial for juicy and tender results. Do not skip this step.
Grill Marks: For perfect grill marks, do not move the steak once placed on the grill until it’s time to flip.
Flavor Enhancement: Marinate the steak with your favorite herbs and spices a few hours before grilling for an extra flavor boost.
Oil the Grill: Lightly oil the grill grates before cooking to prevent sticking.
