Tips & Tricks
- When choosing a ribeye, it’s important to consider several factors, including the grade of the meat, the thickness of the cut, and the amount of marbling.
- For the best results, look for USDA Prime or Choice grade beef, which has the most flavor and tenderness.
- A ribeye that’s about 1 to 1 ½ inches in thickness is also ideal because it can be cooked through without becoming dry.
- Finally, look for a ribeye with a good amount of marbling, as this will make it more flavorful and tender when grilled.
- let the steak sit out for around 20-30 minutes at room temperature before grilling, so it cooks evenly.
