2. Preparing Your Steak

• Bring to Room Temperature: Before cooking, let your Ribeye sit out for about 30 minutes to bring it to room temperature. This ensures even cooking.
• Season Generously: Quality sea salt and freshly ground black pepper is all you need.

3. The Perfect Ribeye Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 Ribeye steak (about 1.5 inches thick)
• Sea salt & freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• Fresh rosemary sprigs

Instructions:

• Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Sear: Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat until smoking hot. Season your Ribeye generously with salt and pepper. Place the steak in the skillet and sear for 2 minutes on each side.
• Add Flavor: Reduce heat to medium. Add butter, garlic, and rosemary to the skillet. As the butter melts, tilt the pan slightly and spoon the butter over the steak continuously for about 1-2 minutes. This infuses the steak with incredible flavor.
• Oven Time: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 6-8 minutes for medium-rare. Adjust according to your preferred doneness.
• Rest: Once done, remove the steak from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.
