Ingredients

  • 1 thick-cut ribeye steak (1 1/2 to 2 inches thick)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary

Method

  1. Pat the thick-cut ribeye steak dry and season all sides of the Reverse Sear Steak with the 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Heat the oven to 225°F, set the seasoned ribeye on a wire rack over a baking sheet, and roast the steak for 45 to 60 minutes until its center reaches 120 to 125°F for medium-rare or 130 to 135°F for medium.
  3. Heat the 1 tablespoon olive oil in a cast iron skillet over high heat until the oil shimmers, then sear the roasted ribeye for 30 to 45 seconds per side until a deep brown crust forms.
  4. Lower the skillet heat to medium-low, add the 1 tablespoon butter, 2 minced garlic cloves and the sprig of rosemary, and baste the crusted ribeye with the foaming butter for 30 seconds.
  5. Rest the butter-basted ribeye for 5 minutes off the heat, then slice the rested steak before serving its rosy center.
