Ingredients
For the Steak
- 4 ribeye steaks about 1 inch thick, approximately 8 ounces each or 225 grams each
- 1 tbsp olive oil 15 ml
- Salt kosher or sea salt, to taste
- Black pepper freshly ground, to taste
For the Garlic Herb Butter
- ½ cup unsalted butter 1 stick or 113 grams, softened
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary finely chopped, 15 ml
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme finely chopped, 15 ml
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley finely chopped, 15 ml
- 1 lemon zest of
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to high heat, aiming for a temperature of around 500°F (260°C).
- While the grill is heating, prepare your garlic herb butter by combining the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, parsley, lemon zest, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl. Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated. Place the mixture on a piece of plastic wrap and form into a log. Refrigerate until firm.
- Take the ribeye steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes. This step is crucial for even cooking.
- Pat the steaks dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear. Brush each steak with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Once the grill is hot, place the steaks on the grill and cook for 4 to 5 minutes on one side, without moving them to get a good sear.
- Flip the steaks and grill for an additional 3 to 5 minutes on the other side for medium-rare to medium doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check for your preferred level of doneness (135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium).
- Transfer the grilled steaks to a plate and let them rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring a moist and tender steak.
- Slice the chilled garlic herb butter into rounds and place a round on top of each steak right before serving, allowing it to melt over the steak.
Notes
Letting the steak rest after grilling is a key step; do not skip it.
For a smokier flavor, consider using wood chips with your grill.
Adjust the level of garlic in the butter to your taste.
Always use fresh herbs for the best flavor in the garlic herb butter.
