    Check out the where it all began • How to Build Your Own ...
    A tomahawk steak is, hands down, one of the best steak cuts that you can buy. It will generously feed at least two people, if not more. But it’s not cheap and deserves to be cooked with care. We don’t recommend attempting this without an instant-read or probe thermometer.
    Once you get comfortable controlling the fire to create different oven “functions,” from broiling to baking to low-and-slow braising, the outdoor cooking world is truly your oyster-or lobster. Clever cooks, start your hotrod oven engines. We’ve got some cooking to do.

    Thank you for saying that part about doneness vs tenderness. I have tried to explain that to some many friends who think the more raw the better.

    DUDE! That tomahawk looks amazing! Made my mouth water… just curious, what’s your thoughts on the reverse sear technique? I like to cold smoke pork chops and steaks then finish them in a blazing hot pan. I haven’t watched the “how to” video on making the oven, but that’s next.
    My question; where did you get the “needle” thermometer probe? I have a Maverick XR40 thermometer with the standard “fat” probes; I want one of those!

      - avoid getting it wet

    So many people gatekeeper steak- like if you don’t have it rare you’re wasting it. It’s only been with experimenting and (dare I say it) sous vide, that I’ve come to appreciate more well done meat. Still juicy but much more pleasant to eat in many cases.

    Super weird to me that you wouldn't finish the steak on a sheet tray with a rack but instead in the ultra hot cast iron. Maybe works out super well for you, for 90% of people watching who don't cook for a living this would take 5 tries to get right to cook to temp, super expensive if you're getting nice meat this thick. idk weird tech to me, I've also never had a chef explain to me to cook a thick piece of meat through boasting 1200 degrees, seems extremely extremely hot and ridonk for heat to travel through your meat nicely. You obv cook for a living so you know how to control what you're doing but for people watching to attempt to do anything close to this at home, just seems a little crazy to me. You're the expert though so...yeah

      If medium cooked steak is considered "dry" for you then your mouth (and by extension your entire body) has a serious hydration problem. The problem is YOU, not the steak. You don't understand how steaks should be cooked and you don't understand how somebody else's cooking is not subjected to your fringe bias in any way whatsoever. Go troll somewhere else.
