How To Grill The Perfect Steak

  • 4

Ingredients

  • serves 4-8 | ACTIVE TIME 10 Min | TOTAL TIME 35 Minutes
  • 4 (1 - 1 1/4" thick) good ribeye steaks, about 1 pound each
  • olive oil, your favorite
  • kosher salt
  • fresh ground black pepper.

Preparation

Step 1

Remove steaks from the refrigerator and place on a baking sheet lined
with aluminum foil for about 15 minutes, covered with foil. Allowing
the steaks to warm slightly will help them to cook more evenly. Preheat
grill to high. Drizzle your steaks with olive oil and liberally
sprinkle with salt and pepper. Flip steaks and repeat. This will give
the steaks that flavorful crust that good steak houses are known for.

After your grill has preheated place steaks on the grill, diagonally to the grill grates (

), this will make those fabulous cross hatch grill marks. Close cover
to grill and allow steaks to cook for another 2-3 minutes.

Flip
steaks over with tongs so they are on the grill diagonal to the grill
grates. After 2 minutes move steaks to an opposite diagonal. Cook for
an additional 2-3 minutes for medium rare. Again use 2-3 minutes for
each step if you are cooking medium rare, use 3 minutes per step if you
are cooking medium.

Place steaks on baking sheet and
loosely tent with aluminum foil. Allow steaks to rest for 5 minutes.
This will help the juices redistribute through out the steak delivering a
more flavorful product!
