🔥 Grilling Option
Prefer the grill? Just preheat to high, oil the grates, and sear the steak 3–4 minutes per side, then finish on indirect heat if needed. Baste with butter after grilling for that same richness.
🍽 Serving Ideas
Pair your ribeye steak with:
- Creamy mashed potatoes or roasted garlic potatoes
- Grilled asparagus or sautéed green beans
- A crisp Caesar salad
- Classic steak sauces like chimichurri, garlic herb butter, or peppercorn sauce
💡 Pro Tips
- Use thick-cut steaks: 1.25–1.5 inches thick is ideal for a juicy interior and crisp crust.
- Let it rest: This is key to keeping your steak juicy — don’t skip this step!
- Dry the steak well before cooking: Moisture is the enemy of a good sear.
