Tomahawk with Shallops

TOM LEONARD’S TOMAHAWK STEAK WITH FOIL ROASTED SHALLOTS

A dramatic cut, with up to 8 inches of exposed bone, it’s called a “tomahawk” because the steak and long bone resembles an axe. Tom Leonard’s Tomahawk steaks are loaded with juicy, restaurant-quality beef and come directly from family-owned ranchers throughout the Midwest. Hand-selected for their generous marbling and hand-trimmed by Tom’s own butchers, a two-pound Tomahawk should serve two people.
