Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Pat the ribeye steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

  2. 2

    Oil the Steak

    Drizzle olive oil over the seasoned steak and rub it in to ensure an even coating.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to high heat, about 450°F (232°C).

  2. 4

    Grill the Steak

    Place the ribeye steak on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side without moving it.

  3. 5

    Flip and Cook

    Flip the steak using tongs and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or until the desired doneness is reached.

Resting and Serving

  1. 6

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

  2. 7

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the steak against the grain and serve immediately.
