Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Ribeye

Season the dry-aged ribeye steak with salt and black pepper on both sides. Let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

2

Marinate

In a bowl, mix together bourbon and maple syrup. Place the ribeye in a zip-top bag and pour the marinade over the steak. Seal the bag and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

3

Preheat Grill

If using a charcoal grill, preheat it and add oak chips to the coals for smoking. If using a gas grill, place the oak chips in a smoker box or wrap them in aluminum foil with holes poked in it.

4

Grill the Steak

Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess liquid drip off. Place the steak on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until the desired doneness is achieved. During the last minute, sprinkle chopped black walnuts on top of the steak.

5

Rest and Serve

Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve with additional maple syrup or bourbon sauce, if desired.
