Method

Steak Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Pat the ribeye steaks dry with paper towels. Rub both sides with olive oil, then sprinkle evenly with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Let the steaks sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to allow the seasonings to penetrate.

  2. 2

    Preheat Grill

    Preheat your grill over high heat for about 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Grill the Steak

    Place the seasoned steaks on the grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached. Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare.

  4. 4

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.

French Fries Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick). Rinse the cut fries in cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 6

    Heat the Oil

    In a large, heavy pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C) over medium heat.

  3. 7

    Fry the Potatoes

    Working in batches, add the fries to the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 5-6 minutes until they are golden brown. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  4. 8

    Season the Fries

    While the fries are still hot, sprinkle with salt to taste.
