🔥🥩 Perfect Ribeye Steak at Home – Trust Me, This Recipe Is a KEEPER! 🥩🔥
If you’ve ever wanted to make a restaurant-quality steak at home without needing a fancy grill or chef-level skills, THIS is it. The kind of ribeye that makes people close their eyes after the first bite and goes straight on your “Must Make Again” list. 😍

👉 Whether you like yours medium-rare, well-done, or somewhere in between, this method gives you a perfectly seared, juicy, buttery steak every time. And trust me… once you’ve tried it like this, you’ll never want to cook it any other way!

🧂 WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

2 ribeye steaks, about 1 to 1½ inches thick

2 tbsp olive oil

Salt & freshly cracked black pepper

2 tbsp butter

3 garlic cloves, smashed (optional but recommended)

Fresh rosemary or thyme (optional but AMAZING flavor)

🔥 HOW TO COOK THE PERFECT RIBEYE:

  1. Let your steaks come to room temperature – don’t cook them straight from the fridge, or they won’t cook evenly.
  2. Season generously – Coat with olive oil and season both sides with lots of salt & pepper.
  3. Heat your skillet – Use a cast iron skillet if possible. Heat over medium-high until HOT.
  4. Sear the steak – Add steak to the pan and do NOT move it for 3–4 minutes. Flip and sear the other side for the same time.
  5. Add butter, garlic, and herbs – As the butter melts, spoon it over the steak repeatedly (this is called basting – key to that juicy richness).
  6. Check the internal temp – 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium.
  7. Let it rest! – Rest the steak for 5–10 minutes before slicing. This locks in all those juices. 🔒💦

🔥 TIPS TO LEVEL UP YOUR STEAK:

Always use a thermometer to get the perfect doneness every time.

Don’t overcrowd the pan – cook one steak at a time if needed.

Use high-quality ribeye with good marbling – that’s where the flavor lives!
