🍴 Ingredients:
 2 Black Angus ribeye steaks (1.25”–1.5” thick)
 2 tsp kosher salt
 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
 1 tsp garlic powder (optional)
 1 tbsp olive oil
Optional Finishing Touches:
 2 tbsp unsalted butter
 2 garlic cloves, smashed
 1 sprig rosemary or thyme
👨‍🍳 Instructions:
1

Bring to Room Temperature:

Remove steaks from the fridge about 45 minutes before cooking to let them reach room temperature.

2

Pat Dry and Season:

Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and season both sides generously with kosher salt, black pepper, and optional garlic powder.

3

Prepare the Grill:

Set up a two-zone grill: indirect heat on one side, high direct heat on the other. Preheat to around 225°F on the indirect side.

4

Reverse Sear: Low and Slow First:

Place steaks on the indirect side. Close the lid and cook until internal temp reaches:

  • 115°F for rare
  • 125°F for medium-rare
  • 135°F for medium
5

High-Heat Sear:

Move steaks to the hot zone. Sear 1–2 minutes per side until a golden crust forms.

6

Optional Butter Baste:

For extra flavor, baste steaks during the sear with melted butter, garlic, and rosemary using a spoon or brush.

7

Reverse Sear:

Move steaks to direct heat and sear 1–2 minutes per side.

8

Rest the Steak:

Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5–10 minutes to retain juices.

9

Slice and Serve

Slice against the grain and serve hot with your favorite sides.
