Happy Father’s Day!

Today we are serving a show stopper for dinner: Tomahawk Cowboy Ribeye Steak.

This steak is not only rich and delicious but a stunning piece of meat!

My husband and I have shared one before at a steak house and it was simply amazing so when I saw them available at our local meat counter I had to try it myself!

What is a Tomahawk Steak?

Tomahawk Steak, aka Cowboy Ribeye is a bone-in ribeye steak cut with the entire rib bone intact. It got it’s name because it has the appearance of a Tomahawk axe. They are large enough to serve at least two and make for a beautiful, impressive plate presentation.
