Choosing the Perfect Ribeye
What to Look for in Quality Ribeye Steaks
When selecting ribeye steaks, look for well-marbled meat. Marbling refers to the white streaks of fat within the meat, which melt during cooking, ensuring a juicy and flavorful steak.
Tips for Selecting the Best Cuts
Color: Choose steaks that are a bright red color, indicating freshness.
Thickness: Aim for steaks that are at least 1-inch thick for optimal cooking.
Marbling: More marbling usually means more flavor and tenderness.
Preparing the Steaks
Marinating the Ribeyes
While ribeye steaks are flavorful on their own, marinating them can add an extra layer of taste. Here’s a simple marinade:
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
Mix all ingredients and marinate the steaks for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
Prepping the Grill or Pan
Grill: Preheat your grill to high heat (450-500°F). Clean the grates and brush with oil.
Pan: Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot. Add a tablespoon of oil just before adding the steaks.
