Perfect Steak on the Grill

Grilling the perfect steak is an art form, and with the Arteflame grill, you can achieve steakhouse-quality results right in your backyard. By utilizing the unique design of the Arteflame grill, you can sear your steak at over 1,000°F on the center grill grate, then finish cooking it to perfection on the flat cooktop. This method locks in the juices and ensures even cooking for a steak that's tender, juicy, and packed with flavor.

Ingredients

2 ribeye steaks (about 1.5 inches thick)
2 tablespoons butter
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 sprigs of rosemary
2 sprigs of thyme

Instructions

1. Fire Up the Grill

Start by firing up your Arteflame grill to get it ready for grilling. Allow the grill to heat up for at least 15-20 minutes until the center grate reaches over 1,000°F.

2. Season the Steaks

Generously season both sides of the ribeye steaks with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Let the steaks sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes to absorb the seasoning.

3. Prepare the Butter Mixture

In a small bowl, combine the butter with minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme. Set aside.

4. Sear the Steaks

Place the steaks on the center grill grate to sear for 2-3 minutes per side. This high-heat sear will lock in the juices and create a beautiful crust on the outside.

5. Move to the Flat Cooktop

After searing, move the steaks to the flat cooktop surrounding the center grill grate. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes per side, depending on your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature:

Rare: 120°F
Medium Rare: 130°F
Medium: 140°F
Medium Well: 150°F
Well Done: 160°F

6. Add Butter Mixture

During the last minute of cooking, add the butter mixture to the steaks. Allow the butter to melt and baste the steaks, enhancing the flavor with the herbs and garlic.

7. Rest the Steaks

Remove the steaks from the grill when they are 15°F below your target temperature (meat continues to cook after it's removed from heat). Let the steaks rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Tips

Patience is Key: Allow the grill to heat up fully before cooking.
Season Generously: Don't be shy with the salt and pepper.
Use a Thermometer: Ensure perfect doneness by checking the internal temperature.
Rest the Meat: Letting the steak rest after grilling ensures juiciness.

Conclusion

Grilling the perfect steak on the Arteflame grill is a rewarding experience that delivers exceptional results. The combination of high-heat searing and the even cooking surface of the flat cooktop creates a steak that is both flavorful and perfectly cooked. Enjoy the process and savor every bite!
