Is a Tomahawk Steak?
The tomahawk steak is essentially a ribeye beef steak specifically cut with at least five inches of rib bone left intact. The extra-long, french trimmed bone utilizes the same culinary technique that shapes a rack of lamb. “Frenching” means trimming the bone of meat and fat to the point where it looks like a handle.

Why is a tomahawk steak expensive?

Wagyu tomahawk steak is expensive because Wagyu beef is a high-quality, luxury meat. The cattle that produce Wagyu beef are bred for superior marbling and typically yield a much higher percentage of intramuscular fat than other breeds. This higher level of marbling results in a more tender, juicy and flavorful steak.

What is so special about a tomahawk steak?

Tomahawk is suffused with exquisite marbling; it makes your meat tender and explosive with flavor, until the very last bite. The intramuscular fat, combined with the attached rib bone, work in unison to make your steak an unforgettable delectable treat.
