We just cooked Tomahawk Steaks using a wheelbarrow, some scrap wire, and a skid steer.
A layer of sand in the bottom of the wheelbarrow keeps the handles from catching on fire and the tire from popping— I learned this the hard way.
Next I built a fire with some scrap oak two by twos.
Then I drilled a hole through the bone of each steak.
We seasoned them with olive oil, plenty of salt, black pepper, some of my homemade hot pepper- this stuff is deadly and finally lots and lots of chili pepper.
I stripped a piece of scrap wire I had- and just like an electrician I didn’t bother sweeping up when I was done.
I ran this wire through the holes I drilled, and then hung the steaks from the teeth on the skid steer.
This way I could raise or lower the bucket so I could get the exact amount of heat I wanted.
Next I chopped up some garlic cloves and added them into a metal bowl with butter.
It melted in no time, then I brushed it onto the steaks.
We did these on low heat for about an hour, and then I reverse seared them with my propane torch -This put a nice crust on the outside.
I was really happy with how these turned out. I’ve never cooked a tomahawk steak before.
Let us know in the comments- what should we cook next? @hausplans
