Instructions
- Prepare the Cowboy Butter: Mix softened butter with fresh herbs, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, red pepper flakes, seasonings, and lemon juice or zest. Set aside.
- Smoke the Tomahawk Steak: Set up a smoker with hot charcoal to smoke the tomahawk steak from the inside out. Smoke the steak until it reaches an internal temperature of 110°F.
- First Sear: At 110°F internal temperature, give the steak the first sear. The steak will be essentially raw inside at this point.
- Add Cowboy Butter and Finish Cooking: Slice knobs of the prepared cowboy butter and place them on the steak. Add a splash of whiskey for a flavor pop. Finish cooking the steak in a pizza oven or under a broiler until desired doneness.
- Serve: Slice and serve the steak with the melted cowboy butter.
