- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- as needed Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions
-
Preparation:
- Remove the ribeye steaks from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature.
- Pat the steaks dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
-
Seasoning:
- Drizzle olive oil over the steaks on both sides.
- Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Rub minced garlic and chopped rosemary evenly over the steaks.
-
Preheating the Grill:
- Preheat your grill to high heat. Ensure the grates are clean and lightly oil them to prevent sticking.
-
Grilling the Steak:
- Place the steaks on the hot grill.
- Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the time according to your preferred doneness.
- Use a meat thermometer for accuracy: 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium.
-
Resting the Steak:
- Remove the steaks from the grill and place a small pat of butter on top of each.
- Let them rest for about 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute within the meat.
-
Serving:
- Slice the steak against the grain and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
Notes
- For added flavor, consider marinating the steaks overnight with the oil, garlic, rosemary, and a splash of balsamic vinegar.
- Always make sure the grill is preheated to high heat to achieve a nice sear.
- If you prefer a smoky flavor, add wood chips to the grill.
- Resting the steak is crucial for juiciness—don’t skip this step!
