Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Steak

    Remove the bone-in ribeye steak from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30-60 minutes before cooking. This ensures even cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Generously season both sides of the ribeye steak with Kosher salt and black pepper. Ensure the seasoning covers the entire surface of the meat.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Pan

    Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes until it is hot.

  2. 4

    Add Olive Oil

    Add the olive oil to the hot skillet. Swirl to coat the bottom of the pan.

  3. 5

    Sear the Steak

    Carefully place the seasoned ribeye steak in the skillet. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side without moving it, until a beautiful crust forms.

  4. 6

    Flip the Steak

    Using tongs, flip the ribeye steak and sear the other side for another 4-5 minutes.

  5. 7

    Add Optional Ingredients

    If using, add the fresh rosemary and smashed garlic cloves to the skillet during the last minute of cooking for added flavor.

  6. 8

    Check for Doneness

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

Resting

  1. 9

    Rest the Steak

    Once cooked to your liking, remove the ribeye from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.

  2. 10

    Slice and Serve

    After resting, slice the steak against the grain and serve it on a warm plate. Enjoy your perfectly cooked butcher's cut ribeye!
