A straightforward and flavorful grilled ribeye steak recipe that delivers a juicy, tender steak with a smoky crust, perfect for any occasion and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

  • Ribeye steaks (1-inch thick, about 12 oz / 340 g each)
  • Coarse kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Olive oil (2 tablespoons)
  • Garlic powder (optional, ½ teaspoon)
  • Fresh rosemary or thyme sprigs (optional)
  • Unsalted butter (2 tablespoons)

Instructions

  1. Bring the steaks to room temperature about 30 minutes before grilling.
  2. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Brush both sides lightly with olive oil.
  3. Season both sides with coarse kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add garlic powder if desired.
  4. Preheat your grill: For charcoal, let the coals burn until covered with gray ash (about 15 minutes). For gas, preheat on high for 10 minutes.
  5. Place the ribeyes directly over the heat. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare (about 135°F internal temperature). Flip once using tongs.
  6. During the last minute, place a sprig of rosemary or thyme on each steak and add a tablespoon of butter on top. Close the grill lid to let the butter melt and meld with the herbs.
  7. Check doneness with an instant-read thermometer or use the finger test method.
  8. Remove the steaks and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let rest for 5-10 minutes.
  9. Slice against the grain and serve.

Notes

Bring steaks to room temperature before grilling for even cooking. Use coarse kosher salt for the best crust. Flip steaks only once to preserve juices. Rest steaks after grilling to redistribute juices. Optional herb and butter finishing adds flavor. For dairy-free, omit butter or use plant-based alternative. Use a thermometer for best doneness accuracy.
