Rib-Eye Steaks That are Superb
Time: 13 mins
Ingredients
- 32 ounces boneless rib eye steaks, 1 inch thick (4 steaks)
- 1 tablespoon freshly cracked black pepper, coarse
- 1 teaspoon granulated garlic powder (optional)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt or 1 1/2 tablespoons coarse sea salt
Directions
- 1 Remove steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit for about 30 minutes to take the chill out of the meat.
- 2 Now, coat both sides generously with coarse black pepper and granulated garlic powder.
- 3 Heat an iron skillet or a heavy bottomed frying pan until very hot on high heat.
- 4 For each steak, sprinkle onto the skillet, 3/4 teaspoon of coarse salt and allow salt to heat up for at least 1 minute.
- 5 Place the steaks on the coarse salt and cook for 3 minutes; DO NOT DISTURB at all, DO NOT LOOK or even move the steaks.
- 6 Turn the steaks over and cook for an additional 3 minutes; again DO NOT DISTURB at all.
- 7 The cooking time of 6 minutes gives you a medium-rare steak; DO NOT OVERCOOK.
- 8 If you desire to cook it to medium, then cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute per side.
- 9 Remove steaks to a plate, cover with foil and let rest for 5 minutes, so that all juices are absorbed by the meat.
- 10 Scrape off any excess coarse pepper and salt if desired and discard.
- 11 I prefer to slice the steaks on an angle about 1/4 inch to 3/8 inch thickness.
- 12 Serve with freshly processed horseradish.
- 13 NOTE; Make sure that the heat is on HIGH at all times during cooking the steaks.
- 14 Do not use ordinary table salt.
- 15 Beef Tenderloin steaks are also real great cooked in this manner. If using a steak thicker than 1 inch, add 1 extra minute per side for medium-rare.
