First Tomahawk Steak This Weekend

[STEbbq]

I have to say I loved the presentation and taste here but the value was as others noted not great. Better deal for me is boneless ribeye. Very happy I did it though!

Looks good!

Back in the good old days? You bought bone in from Sams Club $2 per pound cheaper than the ribeye setting right next to it in the case.

I've done three. Yes, it is a gimmick and you are paying for the bone but it is also the only way for me to get a 2" - 2 1/2" thick ribeye at my local grocery. Plus, the bone makes a good handle and, well, its cool. Honestly, the last one I did was 3 lbs (high choice grade) and it was on sale. It ended up being a little cheaper than the same weight of boneless ribeye.

I've never done one before. What's the draw? Just the way it looks? Is there a difference in taste from a boneless ribeye? Like Jfrosty27 said, I'd hate to pay the extra cash for something I can't eat. Just curious.

I've done one three times.

My reason is: it's delicious!

Like others, I have yet to cook a tomahawk. I don’t see them often, and when I have, it was never the right time for it. But, one of these days I will. Because, yes, they are cool and should be done at least once. like Redman says!

The next best thing after a nicely cooked and tasty steak is its presentation. This one reigns

About the bone in ribeye--for me it's all about the "coolness factor" as Red Man says. I just want to grab it off the grill, wave it over my head and then take a big chomp out of it, cave-person style.

I’ve never bought one but...$8.00 for the extra coolness factor of the huge bone doesn’t seem that bad to me!

[Jfrosty27]

I will buy a bone in rib eye on occasion. But the bone is cut off right where the meat ends. I bet the naked bone weighs a half pound. That’s $8 worth.

Definitely a splurge but wanted to do one for years but could never find it.

Let us know how this cook turns out!

Every time I see one of these at Sam's Club I want to get it, but somehow I continue to resist... the issue mostly being that the wife likes her steak medium well, and I like mine medium rare, and it would be hard to do one of these giant steaks to both tastes. I might get one and cook it when my son and other kids that like it medium-rare are here, and have it for "the boys".

Enjoy. Nothing like a good steak. Yum
