Method

Steak Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Sprinkle the ribeye steaks generously with salt and black pepper on both sides. Let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before grilling.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

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

  3. 3

    Grill the Steaks

    Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking. Place the seasoned steaks on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is achieved.

  4. 4

    Rest the Steaks

    Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for about 5-10 minutes before slicing.

French Fries Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into long, thin strips to make fries.

  2. 6

    Soak the Fries

    Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This will help them become crispier when cooked.

  3. 7

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  4. 8

    Fry the Potatoes

    Drain and pat the potatoes dry with paper towels. Carefully add the fries to the hot oil in batches. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season with salt immediately.

Garlic Butter Preparation

  1. 9

    Make Garlic Butter

    In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add minced garlic and cook gently until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in freshly chopped parsley and season with salt to taste.
