Preparation
- Remove the ribeye steak from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- Pat the steak dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear, then rub both sides with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Grilling
- Preheat your grill to high heat (around 450-500°F) for direct grilling.
- Place the seasoned steak on the hot grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust to your desired doneness.
- Use tongs to turn the steak, avoiding piercing it which can release valuable juices.
Resting and Serving
- Once cooked, transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
- Resting allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring a tender and flavorful steak.
- Slice against the grain and serve immediately.
Notes
For best results, use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. Aim for 130-135°F for medium-rare, 135-140°F for medium, and 140-145°F for medium-well.
