Tomahawk Steak with Rosemary-Infused Butter

Ingredients

• Tomahawk steak (1 (about 2-3 pounds))
• Olive oil (2 tablespoons)
• Salt (1 tablespoon, or to taste)
• Black pepper (1 tablespoon, or to taste)
• Garlic powder (1 teaspoon)
• Unsalted butter (1/2 cup (1 stick))
• Fresh rosemary (3-4 sprigs)

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill to high heat (about 450°F to 500°F).
2. Pat the tomahawk steak dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear, which locks in the juices.
3. Rub the steak evenly with olive oil on both sides, then generously season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, pressing the spices into the meat to enhance flavor.
4. Place the steak on the hot grill and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, creating a beautiful crust.
5. After searing, move the steak to an area of the grill that has indirect heat. Continue grilling for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F for medium-rare (adjust time for desired doneness).
6. Once cooked to your liking, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. This resting period is crucial as it allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a juicy steak.
7. While the steak is resting, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the rosemary sprigs and let them infuse the butter for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
8. After the butter has infused, remove the rosemary and set the butter aside.
9. Slice the tomahawk steak against the grain into thick slices and serve with the rosemary-infused butter drizzled generously on top.
10. Enjoy your sumptuous tomahawk steak with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables, creamy mashed potatoes, or a fresh garden salad.
