Recipe Yield: Serves 2

INGREDIENTS

12 oz ribeye or filet mignon (1 large or 2 smaller steaks)
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp black pepper
4 tbsp unsalted butter
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
3 cloves garlic, smashed

INSTRUCTIONS

GRILL METHOD

1. Prep the steak: Remove steak from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking. Pat dry, rub with olive oil, and season generously with salt and pepper.

2. Heat the grill: Preheat your grill to 450-500°F for high direct heat. Clean the grates and lightly oil them.

3. Grill the steak: Place steak directly over the heat and sear 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare (adjust for desired doneness).

4. Butter baste: In the last 2 minutes of cooking, melt butter with rosemary and garlic in a small cast iron skillet on the grill. Then, brush the infused butter over the steak to enhance its richness and flavor.

5. Rest & serve: Remove the steak from the grill, tent with foil, and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

CAST IRON PAN METHOD

1. Prep the steak: Take the steak out of the fridge 30 minutes ahead. Pat dry, rub with olive oil, and season generously with salt and pepper.

2. Heat the pan: Place a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until smoking hot.

3. Sear the steak: Add the steak and sear 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare.

4. Butter baste: Reduce heat to medium, add butter, rosemary, and garlic to the pan. Tilt the pan and continuously brush the melted butter mixture over the steak for 1-2 minutes to lock in flavor.

5. Rest & serve: Transfer the steak to a plate, tent with foil, and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.


HELPFUL TIPS TO PERFECT THIS RECIPE

  • Choose the Right Cut: Ribeye and filet mignon are ideal for tenderness and flavor.
  • Let It Rest: Always let the steak rest before slicing to keep it juicy.
  • Use a Meat Thermometer: Aim for 125°F (rare), 135°F (medium-rare), 145°F (medium) for perfect doneness.
