Why you will love our Old Cow - Tomahawk Steak...
- Genuine British Old Cow from mature traditional-breed beef
 - Hand trimmed and ready to cook
 - Good to share!
 
This steak is taken from the forerib - we cut each rib individually, then remove the outer layer of fat and cap muscle leaving just the rib eye. We then French trim the bone, giving you something to hold onto when turning the steak on the grill (although some people use the bone to just pick up and chew!)
There is wonderful marbling to help enhance the flavour and texture. Each steak should be enough for 2-3 people.

"Make a big bowl of chimichurri; the tangy sauce goes so well with the rich, creamy fat."

Our Old Cow Beef is a product of both dedication and exceptional farming partnerships. It is sourced from one of two herds we work with specifically to produce this wonderful meat: traditional-breed Lincoln Reds from the Yard Hill herd at Iken, and Belted Galloways from the Carr Farm herd on the River Waveney. These grass-fed cattle live freely from 5-12 years on rich meadows and marshes. This extended grazing allows the cattle to develop extraordinary flavour, renowned for its richness and creamy marbling. We honour this unique beef by slow-hanging each carcass for 8-10 weeks, ensuring its impeccable quality and depth of flavour.
> BBQ and Grill
1.  Season your Tomahawk steak simply, some flakes of sea salt, a little pepper, then rub in some oil.
2.  If cooking on a BBQ, wait until the charcoal has lost their flames, but are glowing hot.  Using tongs, place your steak on the grill.  Standing the steak up, roll it along the edge with your tongs.
3.  Repeat this on all sides and after 4-5 minutes on all sides, lay the steak down on the BBQ rack.
4.  Turn the Tomahawk steak, but not too often.  You are aiming for a really crispy, crunchy, salty exterior, with a soft and pink centre.
5.  Move your Tomahawk steak to a less hot part of the grill and gently cook until the internal temperature is around 55-60°C. (Medium).  It can take a little longer than you think to get some heat into the bone.
6.  Once cooked, Tomahawk steaks NEED to be rested.  Place a little greaseproof paper on a wooden board, place the steak on top and lay a clean tea towel over it.  This will relax the meat which has contracted during cooking and so retain the wonderful juices.
7.  Slice into slithers and serve with a good chimichurri. Delicious!
