Ingredients

• 2 pieces Ribeye steak (boneless or bone-in, about 1 1/2 inches thick)
• 2 teaspoons Kosher salt
• 2 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary sprigs
• 2 cloves Fresh garlic cloves (smashed)

Directions

Step 1

Take the ribeye steaks out of the fridge and allow them to come to room temperature for about 30-40 minutes before cooking.

Step 2

Preheat your grill to high heat (approximately 450-500°F). If using a charcoal grill, prepare a two-zone fire for direct and indirect heat.

Step 3

Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Drizzle olive oil over both sides of the steaks, then rub evenly with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Step 4

Once the grill is hot, place the steaks over direct heat and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, with the lid closed, to develop a nice crust. Use tongs to flip the steaks; do not use a fork to avoid piercing the meat.

Step 5

Move the steaks to indirect heat (if using a charcoal grill) or reduce the heat to medium (if using a gas grill). Close the lid and continue cooking to your desired level of doneness: about 120°F for rare, 130°F for medium-rare, and 140°F for medium. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature.

Step 6

While the steaks are finishing, melt the unsalted butter in a small pan over medium heat or directly on the grill (using a grill-safe skillet). Add the rosemary sprigs and smashed garlic cloves, and let them infuse the butter for 1-2 minutes.

Step 7

Remove the steaks from the grill and brush them generously with the rosemary-garlic butter. Tent loosely with aluminum foil and allow them to rest for 5-10 minutes. Resting helps distribute the juices evenly throughout the steak.

Step 8

Slice the steaks against the grain (if serving sliced) and drizzle any remaining rosemary-garlic butter on top. Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.
