Ingredients
  

  • 2 16-ounce rib eye steaks about 1 to 1/2 inches thick
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Grater

Method
 

  1. 20 minutes before grilling, remove ribeyes from refrigerator and let stand, covered, at room temperature.
  2. Meanwhile, turn all grill burners to high, cover, and heat grill until hot, about 10 to 15 minutes. Create an area of indirect heat by turning off 1 or 2 burners. Clean cooking grate.
  3. Brush each steak with olive oil and sprinkle liberally with Kosher salt and black pepper on both sides.
  4. Add steaks to grill, cover, and sear until golden brown and charred on one side, about 4 to 6 minutes.
  5. Flip steaks and continue to cook until crust forms, about 4 to 6 minutes more.
  6. Transfer steaks to indirect heat and continue to cook until desired doneness, about 5 to 8 minutes more. For medium-rare, an internal temperature of 130 to 135 degrees, for medium, 140 to 145 degrees, or for medium-well 150 degrees.
  7. Transfer steaks to a platter and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let the steaks rest 5 minutes on the cutting board before serving.

Notes

  • Rib Eye Steaks: Look for thick, tall steaks marbled with lines and flecks of fat to ensure a moist steak. Bone-in rib eye steaks tend to be juicier, but boneless steaks are delicious and easier to slice and serve.
  • Olive oil: A light coat of olive oil helps prevent sticking to the grate. You might not need it if the grill is preheated properly.
  • Salt: Table salt works too. Avoid adding salt until just before cooking to prevent moisture loss.
  • Yield: This recipe makes four approximately 6-oz. portions, perfect for generous servings.
  • Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
