GREEK GRILLED RIBEYE STEAKS
Posted for ZWT6 Greek Region. In Greek: Brizoles Mosharisies sta Karvouna. In Greece, butchers use the French style of cutting meat, and ribeyes are cut with the bone in, but boneless ribeyes work equally well. The recipe calls for a traditional beef marinade, and an oil and lemon basting sauce. Whether cooked on the grill or grilled in the oven, this is an easy and delicious dish. Using red drinking wine minimizes the acidity which toughens meat so it is highly recommended NOT to use red wine vinegar or lemon juice as that can create a tougher form of cooked meat.

Tips
- To ensure the best flavor, use high-quality steak. Look for well-marbled cuts, such as ribeye or strip loin.
- Marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
- Use a flavorful marinade. The recipe in the article uses a combination of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, and thyme. You can also experiment with other herbs and spices, such as rosemary, basil, or paprika.
- Grill the steak over high heat. This will help to sear the outside of the meat and lock in the juices.
- Cook the steak to your desired doneness. For a medium-rare steak, cook for about 4-5 minutes per side. For a medium steak, cook for about 5-6 minutes per side. For a medium-well steak, cook for about 6-7 minutes per side.
- Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
Conclusion
Grilled Greek-style steak is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. The marinade infuses the steak with flavor, and the high heat of the grill seals in the juices. The result is a tender, flavorful steak that is sure to please everyone at your table.
