Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ribeye steak, 1 to 1.5 inches thick, about 12–16 ounces (340–450 grams)
  • 4 tablespoons (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 cloves garlic, finely minced or pressed
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • Coarse kosher salt or sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the garlic herb butter: In a small bowl, combine softened unsalted butter with minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, and parsley. Mix well until evenly combined. Set aside or refrigerate if making ahead.
  2. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 450°F). If using a cast iron skillet, heat it over medium-high heat until it just starts to smoke.
  3. Pat the ribeye steak dry with paper towels. Brush both sides lightly with olive oil, then generously season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Let it sit for 5 minutes to come closer to room temperature.
  4. Place the ribeye on the grill. After 2 minutes, flip the steak using tongs. Immediately start basting the top side with the garlic herb butter using a spoon. Flip again after 2 more minutes and baste the other side. Continue flipping and basting every 2 minutes until the steak reaches desired doneness (130°F for medium-rare). This usually takes about 8-10 minutes total.
  5. Remove the steak from the grill and transfer it to a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and let rest for at least 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
  6. Slice against the grain and spoon any remaining garlic herb butter from the pan over the steak before serving.

Notes

Keep a close eye while basting to avoid burning the garlic. If the butter starts smoking too much, move the steak to a cooler part of the grill. Resting the steak after grilling is crucial for juiciness. Use a meat thermometer for perfect doneness or the finger test if familiar.
