Get out a binder and your favorite steak rub. Apply the binder to the steak on all sides then generously season with the rub on all sides. NOTE: For this cook I am using hot sauce (FYR Gold) and the Signature Steakhouse rub from Big Green Egg.

Preheat your Big Green Egg to 250°F using the EGGspander Base with a ceramic half-moon insert on one side. Make sure the other side has the half-moon grill grate dropped down to the bottom section of the EGGspander base. This setup will give you a raised indirect cooking zone and a direct cooking zone (used later).

When the temperature is stable, place the tomahawk ribeye on to the indirect side of the Big Green Egg and let it roast until the internal temperature measures 115°F. NOTE: I use a Thermopop to measure the meat temperature during the cook.

For this cook I used Churn Garlic and Shallot butter to add some extra flavor and punch to the steak. Let this rest for 15-20 minutes allowing the steak to cool down, the internal juices to redistribute, and the butter to melt.
