1
Prepare the Steak
Remove the dry-aged ribeye steak from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30-60 minutes. This helps in even cooking.
2
Season the Steak
Generously season both sides of the steak with kosher salt and black pepper. Let it sit for 10 minutes to absorb the seasoning.
3
Prepare the Grill
Prepare a wood-fired grill. Use hardwood such as oak or hickory for a rich flavor. Allow the fire to burn down until you have hot coals.
4
Sear the Steak
Drizzle olive oil on the steak and place it on the grill. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust according to your preferred doneness.
5
Add Aromatics
During the last minute of cooking, add fresh rosemary and smashed garlic cloves to the grill to infuse flavor into the steak.
6
Rest the Steak
Once cooked to your liking, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.
