Grilling the Perfect Ribeye Steak

Ingredients

• 4 choice rib-eye steaks
• Salt and ground black pepper, to taste
• garlic powder, to taste

Instructions

1. Prepare your grill (gas or charcoal) according to manufacturer’s instructions or until very hot (about 500 – 550°F)
2. Place rib-eye steaks on a large platter and season on all sides with garlic powder, salt and pepper, or as desired.
3. Let them sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before grilling.
4. Transfer seasoned steaks to preheated grill – they should sizzle.
5. After a couple minutes, once juices begin to rise to the surface, use tongs to flip steaks over.
6. Continue grilling steaks to desired doneness. Use an instant-read thermometer for accuracy. I cooked mine about 4 to 6 minutes on each side for a perfect medium-rare. (see in the above post for creating the diamond grill marks.)
7. Remove steaks to a clean plate and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
8. The resting period is important so that the juices don’t run out when you cut into the ribeye, so be patient! Enjoy!
