Mighty tomahawk steak with truffle butter double baked spuds

That a long title huh?

Well it’s deserved..!!

Still going along with the fact that’s it’s my birthday weekend..

I picked up this fantastic steak from my lovely butchers.. It was a bit of a faff getting it right.. And lucky they were a little quiet so we could talk it through., yet Rob did a Stirling job!

And into the grill .. Lid on.. That cherry wood just smells the business! No more charcoal for me.. Possibly.., ahem..

Prior to that spuds delay with by chef ping.. Scooped out..
