An impressive piece of meat for true barbecue fans! The refreshingly hot and sour lemon salad provides the ideal contrast to the juicy, succulent meat and creates a Mediterranean vacation feeling.

For the steak

Ingredients (4 servings)
1 Tomahawk ribeye steak, 900-1400 g, approx. 5 cm thick
2 tablespoon(s) Olive oil
1 tablespoon(s) coarse sea salt
2 teaspoon(s) black pepper, freshly ground
Fresh sprigs of rosemary and thyme for grilling

For the lemon salad

Ingredients (4 servings)
3 Organic lemons, preferably amalfi lemons, but good supermarket produce will also do
1 small red onion
Chili flakes, to taste
A few sprigs of mint, just the leaves
Salt
Olive oil
A handful of black olives
  • Take the steak out of the fridge 1-2 hours before grilling. Pat dry with kitchen paper and rub with olive oil.
  • Rub the meat generously with salt and pepper.
  • In the meantime, cut the lemons into thin slices with a sharp knife and then quarter them. Peel the onion, cut in half and slice into rings. Mix both with salt, chili flakes, mint and olive oil and leave to infuse for at least ½ hour. Fold in the olives before serving.
  • Prepare the grill for two-zone cooking: one side hot (230-260 °C), one side indirect. Place rosemary sprigs and thyme on the indirect side.
  • Sear the steak over a direct heat for 3-4 minutes on each side, turning once through 45 degrees for the grill pattern.
  • Move to indirect heat, close the lid and cook until the desired temperature is reached.
    Continue cooking to the desired degree of doneness:
    - Rare: 52 °C (10-12 minutes)
    - Medium-rare: 57 °C (12-14 minutes)
    - Medium: 63 °C (14-16 minutes)
  • Remove the steak from the grill, cover loosely with aluminum foil and leave to rest for 10-15 minutes. Slice across the bone and serve with lemon salad.
