Grilling a Ribeye Steak on the Arteflame Grill: A Step-by-Step Guide

Grilling a ribeye steak to perfection is an art, and with the Arteflame grill, you can elevate this culinary experience. Known for its rich marbling and flavor, a ribeye steak grilled on the Arteflame delivers a sensational taste and texture. Follow our step-by-step guide to master grilling a ribeye steak, ensuring it's juicy, flavorful, and cooked to your preference.

Ingredients:

• 1 ribeye steak (about 1 to 1.5 inches thick)
• Salt (preferably coarse or kosher)
• Freshly ground black pepper
• Olive oil (optional, for coating)
• Garlic powder (optional, for extra flavor)
• Fresh rosemary or thyme (optional, for aromatics)

Equipment:

• Arteflame Grill
• Meat thermometer
• Tongs
• Aluminum foil (for resting)

Instructions:

1. Prep the Steak:

   • Take the ribeye out of the fridge 30-40 minutes before grilling. This allows it to come to room temperature for even cooking.
   • Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Moisture is the enemy of a good sear.
   • Season generously on both sides with salt, freshly ground black pepper, and optionally, garlic powder. Lightly coat with olive oil if desired.

2. Preheat the Arteflame Grill:

   • Ensure your Arteflame grill is clean and start your fire early. You want a bed of hot coals / wood with a high, direct heat area for searing and a medium heat zone for cooking.

3. Grill the Ribeye:

   • Place the steak on the grill grate for searing. Grill each side for about 2-3 minutes to develop a rich, caramelized crust.
   • Move the steak to a cooler part of the flat top to continue cooking to your desired doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130-135°F, which typically takes 5-7 additional minutes per side, depending on thickness and heat intensity.

4. Rest the Steak:

   • Once the steak reaches your desired internal temperature, transfer it to a plate or cutting board. Tent loosely with aluminum foil and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. Resting allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring a juicy steak.

5. Serve:

   • Optional: Garnish with fresh rosemary or thyme for an aromatic touch.
   • Slice against the grain for maximum tenderness and serve immediately.

Tips for Grilling a Ribeye Steak:

• Season Well: Generous seasoning is key to a flavorful crust.
• High Heat for Searing: Achieve the perfect sear by using the high heat zone on your Arteflame grill.
• Use a Meat Thermometer: Ensures precise cooking to your preferred doneness.
• Let it Rest: Essential for a juicy steak.
• Experiment with Flavors: Adding herbs or a light brush of olive oil can enhance the steak’s natural flavors.
