Ingredients
  

  • 1 2-inch thick Bone-In Tomahawk Ribeye
  • 2 tbsp steak rub
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 garlic gloves minced

Instructions
 

  • First, preheat your pellet grill to 225°F.
  • Generously coat all sides of the tomahawk steaks with kosher salt pepper.
  • Then, allow your steak to sit at room temperature for an hour.
  • After an hour, wipe off the excess salt and pepper pat the steak dry.
  • Season the steak with your dry rub again on all sides of the steak.
  • Place steak on the grill grates, insert the temperature probe (or meat thermometer), and grill, undisturbed, for 45 minutes. Or until your steak reaches an internal temperature of 120°F.
  • Remove steak from grill and tent it with aluminum foil. Allow your steak rest for 10 minutes.
  • Place a cast-iron skillet on the grill rack and allow the temperature to increase to 450°F. You want this pan to get as hot as possible.
  • Place the steak back in the cast iron pan for a reverse sear method, along with garlic, rosemary, and butter.
  • Start spooning the butter on top of the steak as it melts. Sear on one side for 1 minute.
  • Flip the steak and place the garlic and rosemary on top, and continue to baste the steak with melted butter for another minute.
  • Pull the steak off the grill and allow it to rest for another 10 minutes. You want the temperature to get to 130°F to 135°F.
  • Pour the remaining butter on top of the steak and serve immediately.
