RIB-EYE STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to high heat.
• Place rib-eye steaks on a large platter and season with rub on all sides. Transfer seasoned steaks to the hot grill, and cook for 4 to 6 minutes on each side for medium-rare, longer if desired. Remove steaks and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
• In a small bowl, combine all ingredients, to taste. Adjust the ratio of spices to your preference.

BASIC GRILLED RIBEYE STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to high, feel free to start up your sear station/burner if you have one. In instances where your sear kit is over 1", get one side going at medium-high as a precaution.
• Give your steaks some love with a massage of olive oil and a liberal coating of salt and pepper.
• The olive oil will give you just enough fat that the reaction of heat, salt and pepper will yield a spectacular crust.
• Give your grill grates a cleaning, followed by lubricating them with a paper towel soaked in olive oil.
• Place the steaks on the hottest area of the grill, or the sear burner.
• Keep your tongs handy and watch for flare-ups as a result of the steaks' fat dripping down into heat.
• If you experience a lingering flare-up, one lasting more than a handful of seconds, use the tongs to move the steaks away from the flames until they die down, then return them to where they were.
• Continue grilling with the lid up for around 4-6 minutes.
• Turn the steaks over to their other side, keeping them in the same spot on your grill.
• Continue grilling with the lid up for around 4-6 minutes.
• Remove the steaks from the grill and give them 5 minutes for the juices to settle and cool a bit.
• Serve.

RIB-EYE GRILL

Steps:

• Combine first 5 ingredients, and rub over steaks.
• Let stand 1 hour.
• Grill, covered with grill lid, over high heat (400° to 500°) 7 minutes.
• Turn steaks, and grill 5 more minutes or to desired degree of doneness.

SALT AND PEPPER RIBEYE STEAK

Steps:

• Two days before cooking, salt both sides of each steak with 1/2 teaspoon Diamond Crystal® Kosher Salt per steak. Place steaks in an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to cook.
• Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about 30 minutes prior to cooking. Sprinkle both sides of steak with black pepper.
• Heat cast iron pan over medium-high heat until very hot. Add vegetable oil and heat until oil shimmers.
• Carefully place steaks in pan. Cook until brown and hard-seared on one side, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Turn steaks and top with one teaspoon butter. Cook for 3 to 4 more minutes or to desired doneness. You may need to cook the steaks in batches depending on the size of your cast iron pan. Keep the cooked steaks in a 170 degree F oven until ready to serve.

GRILLING THICK STEAKS - THE REVERSE SEAR

Steps:

• Season steak generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
• Place wood chips in the smoker box of your gas grill according to manufacturer's instructions.
• Preheat one side of the grill to about 250 degrees F (121 degrees C).
• Place steak on the cool side of the grill. Cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads about 100 degrees F (37 degrees C), 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer steak to a plate. Brush with olive oil and cover with aluminum foil.
• Increase heat on the grill to 600 degrees F (315 degrees C) by turning both burners up to maximum.
• Cook steak until crust forms and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 125 degrees F (52 degrees C), about 3 minutes per side. Transfer steak back to plate. Cover with aluminum foil and let rest before serving, about 5 minutes.

RIB EYE STEAK RECIPE

Steps:

• Choose your ribeye steak: You can buy either bone-in or boneless steak for this recipe. The most important thing is to buy a high quality steak (read: expensive. Mine was $15/pound.) The grade of the meat should be labeled USDA Prime, or Choice if you are desperate. Don't buy Select, it is not appropriate for this cooking method. The steak should be well marbled, which means that you can see lots of swirly white veins of fat all over the meat. Fat=flavor. Bring it on.
• Prepare your ribeye steak: At least 4 hours or up to 48 hours before you want to eat, prepare your steak by rubbing it with a ton of kosher salt. For 1 pound of steak, I used 2 teaspoons kosher salt (one teaspoon per side, and make sure to get the edges too). This sounds like a lot! But something magical happens while it sits for so long: the salt first draws out the moisture, but then absorbs it back into the meat and tenderizes and flavors the entire steak, not just the outside. Place the salted steak on a plate and put it in your fridge uncovered. Yes, uncovered. This allows the steak to dry out and give you an incredible sear when you cook it. (NOTE: If you are using table salt (regular salt that you find on the table in any restaurant) then use a total of 1 and 1/2 teaspoons).
• 30 minutes before cooking: Get your salted steak out of the fridge and set it on the counter for at least 30 minutes. Don't cook a cold steak, it will be overdone on the edges and undone in the middle. Just before cooking, drizzle the steak with 1-2 teaspoons canola or vegetable (or any high heat) oil, and rub it all over the steak. Don't be shy.
• Make the garlic butter sauce: In a small bowl, add 3-4 tablespoons butter and melt it in the microwave. (The more butter you use the more drizzling sauce you will end up with.) Add 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 1 teaspoon thyme leaves, and 1 teaspoon chopped rosemary. (Use 1/2 teaspoon each dried thyme and rosemary if you don't have fresh). Use the side of a chef's knife to smash two cloves of garlic. Peel them and slice the garlic into strips. Add the garlic to the butter. Stir it together and set aside. If you have fresh thyme and rosemary, prep the sprigs you are using and set them nearby.

GRILLED RIBEYE (RIB) PORK CHOPS WITH EASY SPICY BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat grill over medium-high heat and brush with olive oil. Season chops with salt and pepper on both sides. Place pork on grill for 8-9 min., turning once halfway through, until internal temperature is 145°F as measured by a meat thermometer. Remove pork from grill, tent with foil and rest for 3 min.
• Spicy BBQ Sauce: Heat oil in pot over medium heat. Sauté onion until soft; add ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar and cayenne. Simmer for 15 min. until sauce thickens; turn off heat. Once cooled, puree sauce in blender. Serve chops with spoonful of sauce.

GRILLED RIB-EYE STEAKS

Steps:

• Heat grill to high; clean and lightly oil hot grates. Let steaks stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Generously season both sides of steaks with salt and pepper. Grill steaks, rotating once to create hatch marks, until well-browned on the outside and cooked to desired doneness, 6 to 7 minutes per side on a charcoal grill (or 8 to 9 minutes per side on a gas grill) for medium-rare (about 125 degrees). Transfer to a platter; cover with foil. Let rest for 10 minutes. Slice steaks against the grain.
