The best way to prepare a ribeye is cooking the steak in a cast-iron pan. By using the pan, you get a nicer crust, and you can incorporate a basting method into the cooking process, which always helps improve the flavor of the meat.
Note: This technique requires good kitchen ventilation.
-
Remove the steak from refrigerator and let it come to room temperature. About 45 min to 1 hour.
-
Preheat the pan / grill to medium-high heat.
-
Season the steak on all sides with Kasaai Spice Rub or Simple Rub.
-
Sprinkle vegetable oil on pan. If using a grill, rub vegetable oil on the grill.
-
Place the steak on the pan / grill directly above heat and let it cook for about 3 minutes. Do not touch it or move it it around!
- Flip the steak and add a tablespoon of butter and a sprig or two of fresh thyme or rosemary and let the steak continue searing for another 3 minutes while basting the steak with the melted butter.
-
Remove steaks from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before cutting.

Enjoy!
