You can't fake steak!! I hope you had some help on that bad boy. I think I am confident enough to tackle one of those so I will be cooking one before the summer is over. Nice cook, brother.

Still haven't seen a Tomahawk where I shop. So maybe a silly question, do they charge more or less per lb. than a regular Ribeye? Do you get a discount cause you're paying for a giant bone? Or are you paying extra for the giant bone? :noidea:

Great looking cook BTW! Wish I was there.

Usually price is the same but you do pay from the bone. Figure prime ribeye 4+ lbs so you're in a few bucks already so no sense in charging more because of aesthetics.
