7. Let It Rest
Place the steak on a cutting board and let it rest for 5–10 minutes. This allows juices to redistribute and keeps it tender and juicy.
8. Slice and Serve
Slice against the grain and serve with your favorite sides — like roasted potatoes, grilled asparagus, or a simple salad.
🔄 Grilling Option
- Preheat your grill to high heat (around 450–500°F).
- Follow the same seasoning method.
- Grill for 4–5 minutes per side, depending on thickness and desired doneness.
- Finish with butter and let rest as usual.
🧂 Extra Tips for a Tender Ribeye
- Don’t overcook it — Medium-rare is ideal for tenderness.
- Resting is non-negotiable — it prevents dry, chewy meat.
- Use a thermometer — guesswork leads to disappointment.
- Marinate (optional) — a quick marinade can add flavor, but with good quality ribeye, it’s not necessary.
🍷 What to Serve with Ribeye
Pair your steak with:
- Garlic mashed potatoes
- Creamed spinach
- Grilled corn on the cob
- Red wine (like Cabernet Sauvignon or Malbec)
