Method

For the Ribeye

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Remove the ribeye steak from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Season both sides with alae sea salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.

  2. 2

    Grill the Steak

    Preheat a grill to high heat. Brush the grill grates with olive oil. Place the ribeye on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes.

For the Yuzu Cabernet Demi Glace

  1. 3

    Make the Demi Glace

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and sauté minced shallots until translucent. Add Cabernet Sauvignon and bring to a simmer, reducing by half. Add beef stock and thyme sprigs, simmer until reduced to a sauce-like consistency. Stir in yuzu juice and season with salt and pepper. Remove thyme before serving.

For the Kahuku Corn Relish

  1. 4

    Prepare the Corn Relish

    In a mixing bowl, combine fresh corn kernels, diced red bell pepper, red onion, and chopped cilantro. Add lime juice, salt, and black pepper to taste. Mix well and let sit for 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
