How to Make Grilled Ribeye
Be sure to see the recipe card below for full ingredients & instructions!
- Combine the marinade ingredients. Place the steaks in a dish and cover them with the marinade.
- Marinate the steaks for 1 hour.
- Season the room temperature steaks with salt and pepper.
- Preheat the grill to 400°F-450°F.
- Grill the steaks for 10 minutes, flipping halfway through for medium rare.
- Let the steaks rest before slicing and serving.
No. There is enough fat in the beef and marinade to prevent sticking. The additional oil will drip into the flames, causing the steak to char.
Ribeye is naturally tender, so you do not need to marinate it for a long time before cooking. But for this recipe, it does infuse a lot of flavor. 1 hour is sufficient.
I recommend grilling steaks on medium-high heat, about 400-450°F.
Unless you are cooking a thick cut of steak, it is best to leave the grill open.
Yes. Follow the recipe through step 5, then preheat the oven to 275°F. Set a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet, and place the steak on top. Bake for 15 minutes, then transfer to a cast-iron skillet and sear in 1 tablespoon of oil for 2 minutes per side, or until the steaks reach your desired level of doneness. This is called reverse searing, and it will yield the best results.
Yes, but be aware that grass-fed beef tends to cook faster than corn-fed.

Tips for Perfect Grilled Ribeye
