FAQ
Q: How can I tell when my tomahawk steak is done?
A: The best way to check is by using a meat thermometer. For medium-rare, aim for 130°F, and for medium, look for 140°F. Let the steak rest for 10 minutes before slicing to ensure the juices redistribute.

Q: Can I make the mozzarella sticks ahead of time?
A: Yes! You can prepare the mozzarella sticks up to the point of frying. Simply freeze them for 30-60 minutes before frying to prevent them from falling apart during cooking.

Q: Can I bake the mozzarella sticks instead of frying them?
A: Yes, you can bake the mozzarella sticks in a preheated oven at 400°F for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Brush them with a little olive oil before baking for a crispier texture.

Q: Can I use a different type of steak?
A: Yes, if you can’t find a tomahawk steak, you can substitute with ribeye, T-bone, or another bone-in steak. Adjust the cooking time based on the thickness of the steak.
