Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1 piece Tomahawk steak
  • 2 tbsp kosher salt for seasoning
  • 1.5 tbsp black pepper
  • 3 tbsp olive oil for rubbing
  • 4 cloves garlic minced

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C) and prepare for indirect cooking.
  • Pat the Tomahawk steak dry and rub olive oil evenly over the surface.
  • Season both sides liberally with kosher salt, black pepper, and minced garlic.
  • Place the steak on the smoker grate and smoke until the internal temperature reaches 120°F (49°C) for rare, about 60-70 minutes.
  • Remove the steak from the smoker and sear on a hot grill or cast iron skillet for 1-2 minutes per side to develop a crust.
  • Let the steak rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

For best results, use a quality wood like hickory or oak in your smoker to enhance the flavor.
