Bison Ribeye Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Steak

   Remove the bison ribeye from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps it cook more evenly.

2. 2

   Season the Steak

   Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Rub both sides with olive oil, then season generously with kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

3. 3

   Preheat the Pan

   Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat until hot.

4. 4

   Cook the Steak

   Add the seasoned bison ribeye to the hot pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side without moving it, until a nice crust forms.

5. 5

   Flip and Add Butter

   Flip the steak and add butter and fresh rosemary to the pan. Continue to cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, basting the steak with the melted butter.

6. 6

   Check for Doneness

   Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. Bison is best served medium-rare, at an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C).

7. 7

   Rest the Steak

   Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

8. 8

   Serve

   Slice the bison ribeye against the grain and serve with your favorite sides.
