1
Prepare the Steak
Remove the ribeye steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps them cook more evenly.
2
Season the Steaks
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Rub each steak with olive oil, then season generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.

3
Preheat the Grill or Pan
Preheat your grill to high heat or place a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat on the stove. If using a skillet, you can add a little olive oil to prevent sticking.
4
Cook the Steaks
Place the ribeye steaks on the grill or in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on the first side without moving them, until a nice crust forms.
5
Flip and Finish Cooking
Flip the steaks and cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer them more done. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness (130°F for medium-rare).
6
Add Butter (Optional)
If you like, during the last minute of cooking, add butter to the skillet and baste the steaks with the melted butter for extra flavor.

7
Rest the Steaks
Remove the steaks from the heat and let them rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute within the meat.
8
Garnish and Serve
Serve the ribeye steaks garnished with fresh rosemary if desired. Enjoy with your favorite side dishes!
