Season the ribeye steak with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides. Let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare or longer if preferred. Remove the steak from the pan, let it rest for 10 minutes, and slice thinly against the grain.
While the steak rests, cut the onion into thin rings. Dip the onion rings into buttermilk, then dredge them in all-purpose flour, shaking off excess.
Heat 2 cups of oil in a large skillet or pot to 175Β°C (350Β°F). Fry the onion rings in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
Toast the bread rolls by spreading butter on the cut sides and warming them in a skillet or under a broiler until golden.
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise with Dijon mustard to create a spread.
Assemble the sandwiches: spread the mayonnaise-Dijon mixture on the cut sides of the toasted bread rolls. Layer with sliced steak, a slice of cheese (if using), and crispy onions.
Serve immediately while warm, optionally with a side of your favorite chips or salad.
