**Reverse Seared Ribeye: A Journey from Rare to Perfectly Cooked Perfection**
Indulge in a culinary adventure with our reverse seared ribeye, an exceptional cut of steak elevated to new heights of flavor and tenderness. This technique transforms a succulent ribeye steak, known for its rich marbling and bold beefy taste, into a masterpiece of evenly cooked perfection. Unlike traditional searing methods, the reverse sear begins with a low and slow cooking process, allowing the steak to reach its desired doneness gently and evenly throughout. Once the internal temperature is just right, a quick sear on a screaming-hot skillet caramelizes the exterior, creating a symphony of flavors and textures that will tantalize your taste buds. Discover the secrets to achieving a perfectly cooked ribeye with our comprehensive guide, encompassing detailed instructions, helpful tips, and variations to suit your preferences.
**Additional Recipes Included:**
- **Ribeye Steak Marinade**: Elevate your ribeye experience with a flavorful marinade that infuses the steak with aromatic herbs, zesty spices, and a touch of acidity. This marinade tenderizes and adds depth to the steak's natural flavors, ensuring a juicy and succulent result.
- **Garlic Herb Butter**: Treat your taste buds to a luxurious topping of garlic herb butter, a symphony of aromatic herbs, savory garlic, and rich butter that melts over the hot steak, infusing it with an irresistible garlicky goodness. This simple yet elegant addition elevates the ribeye to a gourmet-level dish.
- **Roasted Vegetables**: Complete your meal with a medley of roasted vegetables, a vibrant and colorful side dish that complements the hearty ribeye steak perfectly. Our selection of roasted vegetables includes tender carrots, crisp broccoli florets, and flavorful bell peppers, all tossed in a drizzle of olive oil, herbs, and spices.
- **Creamy Horseradish Sauce**: Add a touch of tangy heat to your steak with a creamy horseradish sauce, a classic accompaniment that balances the richness of the ribeye. This sauce combines sour cream, mayonnaise, freshly grated horseradish, and a hint of lemon juice, creating a creamy and flavorful condiment that enhances the steak's bold flavors.
REVERSE-SEAR RIBEYE STEAK
In 2001, I started playing with the idea of reverse-searing, or slow-cooking beef first, then searing to finish. Initially, I tried it on a standing rib roast and not only did the technique produce an evenly done interior and great sear, it didn't smoke up the kitchen nearly as bad as the traditional sear-first method. Does this work on steak? Anyone with a food blog these days knows darn well it does. As for sauce, this steak don't need no stinkin' sauce - but if you happen to have some of my compound herb butter on hand, that wouldn't be bad. Note: A proper probe thermometer has a control base with a readout, a long metal cable and a long, sharp probe that goes into the food and remains throughout cooking. Typically, the base will have a temperature alarm that can be set to go off when a target temperature is reached.This recipe first appeared in Season 1 of Good Eats: Reloaded.

Steps:
- Season steak on both sides with the salt and place on a rack set inside a rimmed sheet pan. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or up to 24.
- Heat oven to 200ºF. Insert a probe thermometer horizontally through the side of the steak and roast, still on the rack and sheet pan, until it reaches an internal temperature of 120ºF, about 1 hour. Remove steak from the oven and rest, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place a 12-inch cast iron skillet over high heat until it reaches at least 600ºF, at least 10 minutes. (If you don't have an infrared thermometer, you'll know you're close when 1/2 teaspoon water dropped in the middle of the pan has completely evaporated in 5 seconds.
- Brush a very light coat of peanut oil onto both sides of the steak. Transfer to the hot skillet and sear on each side until deeply browned, 45 seconds per side. Use a stopwatch!
- Transfer to a clean rack and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice diagonally against the grain to serve.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
- Season all sides of the rib-eyes liberally with salt and pepper. Place on wire rack-lined baking sheet. Bake until the desired internal temperature is reached, 105 degrees F for rare, 115 for medium rare and 125 for medium, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. When the rib-eyes come out of the oven, tent loosely with aluminum foil while preheating the skillet.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil, then sear the steaks on the first side for about a minute. Flip the steaks and add the butter to the skillet. Once the butter has melted, continue to cook the steaks, continuously basting with the melted butter, until seared on the second side, about 45 seconds. Sear the fat cap as well to crisp up, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Slice and serve immediately, spooning the pan juices over each slice. There is no need to rest the meat with the reverse sear method.

Tips:
- Choosing the right steak: Look for a ribeye steak that is at least 1 inch thick and has good marbling. The marbling will help the steak stay juicy and flavorful during cooking.
- Seasoning the steak: Keep the seasoning simple with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
- Cooking the steak: The key to a perfectly cooked ribeye steak is to reverse sear it. This means cooking the steak at a low temperature in the oven first, then finishing it off in a hot skillet. This method will help the steak cook evenly and prevent it from becoming tough.
- Checking the steak for doneness: Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the steak. For a medium-rare steak, the internal temperature should be 135 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Resting the steak: Once the steak is cooked, let it rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Reverse searing is a great way to cook a ribeye steak. This method produces a steak that is cooked evenly, juicy, and flavorful. With a little practice, you can master the art of reverse searing and enjoy perfectly cooked ribeye steaks at home.
