How to cook a Tomahawk Ribeye (Cowboy Steak) on the Blackstone Griddle. In this video I cook up a 3 pound USDA Prime Grade Tomahawk Ribeye Steak on the Blackstone Griddle. For this cook I used the "continuous flip method." I ran my Blackstone Griddle on high and used beef tallow as the fat component, flipping every 30 seconds until the steak reached 120ºF. The crust that the Blackstone Griddle developed was amazing! How to: Perfect Steak Crust / Sear

Look at that perfection. 18min of flipping meat over a hot heat, and 4 people so far gave a thumbs down. Stop with the thumbs down and thank him for showing us how to make our food better , and ourselves better. Thank you .

Well I for one love a medium rare steak, but having one cooked a bit more medium is perfectly acceptable at my table. There is nothing I didn't love about this steak! Cool thing about using the Blackstone is you could knock out a lot of steaks at one time for guest. 18 minutes to flavortown and everyone eats at the same time. Cheers Greg! 🍺

Do 2 of these at same time, cook one this way and for the other go 60 seconds between flips. You'll see the same great crust one steak won't take as long (half the work too). 30 seconds just doesn't transfer enough heat on steak this thick

@AngrySmasher 2 жыл бұрын

Flipping it does two things for you. It helps fill in all of the spots on the crust because it lays slightly differently every time you flip it. It also helps for a more even cook with way less gray banding. This is because when you cook a side for 2 minutes straight (for example) that side absorbs more heat than can work it's way down into the center at one time so that side starts to develop an overcooked gray band. If you flip more regularly if gives each side some time to cool off a bit before putting that side back down to work on the crust a little more so you avoid more of that gray banding. I do realize that this guy still saw some gray banding - honestly with a piece of meat this size you're going to see some if you're purely searing it without doing something like sous vide or indirect heat in an over or "cool" side of a grill. But the above still stands for a steak that's not the size of a truck haha

Carry over heat has a few determining factors. Cooking temp and the mass of the meat are the biggies. With that massive of a steak at 550 degrees, 15 degrees would be the minimum to expect. You could either pull it earlier or set up a cooler zone and do 30 secs per side hot, then 30 secs per side on the cooler zone. This way the heat penetrates a bit slower to increase the window of perfect doneness. I think you did a terrific job. As always I think you are the best around.

I wonder how that would turn out if you sous vided that steak, seasoned to 105 degrees, patted it dry, and then hit the hot griddle with it for four or five minutes? I think that might make a good lunch project for me over holiday break. Maybe some hickory smoked sea salt, granulated garlic, and black pepper overnight before sous vide, then a quick sear on a cast iron griddle on the gas stove downstairs. I can always do some reloading or fly-tying while waiting through the sous vide portion of the cook. Merry Christmas, Greg.

We've used this griddler for a variety of items including steak, fish, vegetables kzfaq.infoUgkxMcXT6_MuT0hB3ejyGQQHaeof9bwoWPUf and mushrooms and it's been great! Gets that great smokey flavor when using high heat or sear. The grill works amazingly simple and very low smoke for what it is. Heat gets up fairly quick, especially on closed position. The griddler side is fairly simple, better for eggs and pancakes rather than any cooking. Use the flat plates with the grill side if needed.Cleanup is easy and having heat on both sides is great for cooking a large amount or panini press.This definitely gets hot though so be careful with the sides.
