About this cut
A tomahawk is a bone-in ribeye with the full rib bone left long and frenched - the same eye of the steak, presented as a centrepiece. The bone adds nothing to the flavour but everything to the occasion, and it also makes the steak thick, which changes how you have to cook it.
Marbling: Full Blood Wagyu MB 8+
Full Blood means 100% Wagyu genetics, no cross-breeding. At marble score 8 and above the fat is dense and web-like through the muscle, giving a rich, sweet finish while still eating like a steak rather than a delicacy.
How to cook it
- Thaw fully in the fridge overnight if frozen, then sit at room temperature for 45 minutes.
- Reverse sear is the only reliable method at this thickness. Oven at 120°C until the internal temperature reaches 48-50°C - roughly 45-70 minutes depending on weight.
- Rest 10 minutes off the heat.
- Sear 60-90 seconds per side in a screaming hot pan or over direct charcoal to build the crust.
- Rest another 10 minutes, then carve the eye off the bone and slice against the grain.
Best for: Reverse sear, charcoal, sharing centrepiece.
How much to order
150-200g per person. A sharing steak - carve off the bone and slice across the grain.
Storage and handling

Common questions
Is this Halal?
Yes. Every cut we sell is Halal certified, without exception.
Can I ask for a different thickness or portion size?
Yes. Our butchers cut to order. Message us on WhatsApp before you place the order and we will prepare it the way you want it.
How do I know when it is done without a thermometer?
Buy a thermometer - it is the single best AED 50 you will spend on steak. Until then: rare feels like the base of your thumb relaxed, medium rare gives slight resistance, medium springs back.
How fast is delivery?
1-2 days across the UAE, packed in insulated boxes with gel ice. Free over AED 200 in Dubai, free over AED 500 in Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and the Northern Emirates.
