Tomahawk ribeye reverse sear

Seasoned with salt n pepper, beau mondes and garlic powder

About 290 dome temp had a couple chunks of cherry putting off a very pleasant aroma 

Pulled it about 120-125 

seared 2 min per side at 600

Came out more medium then I wanted must’ve climbed more under the foil then I anticipated. Was still delicious.

anyways it’s a fun cook and my dog loved the bone, even though it wasn’t bigger than her :-)

    I would inhale it. 
    Foil will enable a  temperature rise right off the cooking surface FWIW.

    Man that looks incredible! I’ve wanted to try a tomahawk for a while but don’t want to screw it up. 

    One probably dumb question, to do a tomahawk on a large egg you would need to cut most of the bone off right? In order to close the dome for indirect and for getting it flat for the sear. Yours is an XL right and it looks like it just barely fits in tact.

    Mine was just under 4lbs so either a big steak or a small roast either way reverse sear and you’ll be fine. I’m sure I’ve seen guys do these on the large you should go for it!

    I’ve learned my lesson with the foil I don’t normally cover with foil like that but it was raining I should’ve just run it inside while getting to sear temp
