Steak Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Remove the ribeye steaks from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature, about 30 minutes before cooking. Pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Steaks

    Rub both sides of the steaks with olive oil. Sprinkle salt, black pepper, and garlic powder evenly over both sides of the steaks, pressing gently to adhere the seasonings.

  3. 3

    Heat the Pan

    Place a heavy skillet or cast-iron pan on the stove over high heat. Allow it to heat up for about 5 minutes until it’s very hot.

  4. 4

    Sear the Steaks

    Carefully place the seasoned steaks in the hot pan. Sear the steaks for 4-5 minutes without moving them to develop a crust.

  5. 5

    Flip and Add Butter

    Using tongs, flip the steaks over and add the butter and rosemary to the pan. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, basting the steaks with melted butter using a spoon.

  6. 6

    Check Doneness

    Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the steaks. For medium-rare, aim for 130-135°F (54-57°C). Adjust cooking time as needed.

  7. 7

    Rest the Steaks

    Once cooked to your desired doneness, remove the steaks from the pan and allow them to rest on a plate for 5-10 minutes. This helps the juices redistribute.

  8. 8

    Serve

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