Get ready to sink your teeth into the most mouth-watering, jaw-dropping, taste-bud-tingling grilled tomahawk steak of your life!
This show-stopping, reverse-seared masterpiece is cooked to perfection with a rich, unctuous compound butter that’s bursting with the deep flavors of shallots, garlic, and chives.

First, let’s talk about the magic that happens when you combine brown sugar, Montreal steak seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder to create a mouth-watering steak rub.
Take your 2 3/4 pound tomahawk steak and give it a good coating of that delicious rub, making sure to cover all surfaces evenly.
Next, place the steak on a half sheet pan and let it dry-brine in the refrigerator overnight, uncovered.
While the steak is getting its beauty sleep, let’s make the compound butter.
In a small bowl, mash together salted butter, minced shallot, garlic, chopped fresh chives, and a sprinkle of that amazing steak rub until it’s smooth and creamy.
Spoon the butter into a small airtight container, cover it, and refrigerate until you’re ready to use it.

Now it’s time to cook the steak.
Remove it from the refrigerator about an hour before cooking to let it come to room temperature.
Preheat your oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) and place the steak on the sheet pan you used for dry-brining.
Use an instant-read thermometer to check the internal temperature, and when it reaches 110 degrees F (43 degrees C), it’s time to move on to the next step.
Preheat your outdoor grill to high heat and lightly oil the grate.
When the steak is ready, remove it from the oven and sear it on both sides for about 2 minutes per side, being mindful of those pesky flame flare-ups.

Once the steak is cooked to your liking, remove it from the grill and smear that amazing compound butter all over the top.
Let the butter melt into the steak, infusing it with the flavors of garlic, shallots, and chives.
Let the steak rest for 10 minutes before slicing it thinly and serving it with the accumulated juices and melted butter.
And don’t forget to serve the bone – someone will definitely want to gnaw on it!

This grilled tomahawk steak is the perfect centerpiece for a special occasion or a fancy dinner party.
Serve it with a side of baked rice and a chopped wedge salad, and you’ve got a meal that’s sure to impress.
