Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (8-10 oz each) rib eye steaks
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon (finely chopped) fresh rosemary leaves
- 1 teaspoon (finely chopped) fresh thyme leaves
- 4 tablespoons (1 per steak) unsalted butter
Instructions
1. Remove the rib eye steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before grilling. This ensures even cooking.
2. In a small bowl, combine kosher salt, freshly cracked black pepper, garlic powder, red chili flakes, rosemary, and thyme to create the seasoning blend.
3. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels, then brush both sides of each steak with olive oil.
4. Generously coat both sides of the steaks with the seasoning blend, pressing it into the meat to adhere.
5. Preheat your grill to high heat (about 450°F to 500°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
6. Place the steaks on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare (internal temperature of 130°F-135°F) or adjust the cooking time based on your desired level of doneness.
7. During the last minute of grilling, place 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter on top of each steak to melt and soak into the meat.
8. Remove the steaks from the grill and tent them loosely with aluminum foil. Let them rest for 5-7 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
9. Serve the rib eye steaks immediately alongside your favorite side dishes, such as grilled vegetables or mashed potatoes, and enjoy!
