How to
- Begin by preparing your Tomahawk steak, ensuring it's at least 5 cm thick. Slather the steak with coarse mustard, creating a base layer that will subtly infuse the meat with flavor. Generously apply PitmasterX Texas BBQ seasoning and PitmasterX Beef seasoning to all sides of the steak, ensuring even coverage without masking the beef's natural qualities.
- Prepare your smoker by setting it to a mild 110°C or 230°F. Load it with Borniaks cherry wood chips to infuse the steak with a sweet, smoky flavor. Hang the steak in the smoker using butcher’s twine tied in a noose that tightens with tension, allowing even exposure to the smoke.
- While the steak smokes, prepare the basting butter by melting unsalted butter and mixing it with chopped chives, parsley, and minced garlic. As the steak absorbs the smoky aroma, baste it every 10 minutes with the herb-infused butter, creating a rich, golden crust.
- Simultaneously, craft a vibrant sauce by combining chopped spring onions, diced roasted red peppers, Dutch mayonnaise, a touch of gochujang for heat, and PitmasterX Deli BBQ seasoning. Adjust sweetness with sugar if desired.
- After smoking the steak for approximately 1.5 hours or until it reaches a core temperature of 52°C or 125°F, let it rest briefly. Serve the steak sliced, adorned with fresh rosemary and drizzled generously with the homemade sauce.
