How to Grill a Ribeye Steak

1. Get the supplies. It is recommended that you visit the local butcher for the best steak cuts. However, the local grocery store will generally have good cuts of ribeye as well. Choose the 30-minute marinade of your choice.
2. Marinate the steak. Place the steak in a 2 quart glass dish with a cover. Season with salt and pepper and add generous amounts of marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least thirty minutes.
3. Heat up the grill. While the steak is marinating heat up your gas or BBQ grill on medium-high heat. If you are using a charcoal grill make sure that the charcoals are ashen and glowing before you grill the steaks.
4. Grill the steaks. Grill the steaks for 5-7 minutes on one side, depending on thickness.
5. Flip the steaks. Grill the steaks on the reverse side for an additional 4-5 minutes. Flip the steaks again and close-grill for 1-2 minutes.
6. Serve and enjoy. Remove the steaks from the heat and allow them to cool for 2-5 minutes, serve with your favorite sides and enjoy a great ribeye steak.

Tips & Warnings

• It is better to pull a steak off the grill that is too rare than one that is overdone. If your steak is too rare for your tastes, simply slap it back on the grill for a few more minutes.
• Always wash your hands after touching raw meat.
