Best way to cook a boneless ribeye

Unlike leaner steaks such as fillet, which can be served very rare, it's best to cook rib-eye to at least medium-rare, as this gives the fat enough time to render down and flavour the meat.

Is it better to cook steak on the stove or in the oven? Both! You wouldn't think it would make that big of a difference, but it really does. The pan-searing on the stove gives the browned flavor you love and the really hot oven helps cook the steak through!

For the perfect medium-rare degree of doneness, your Ribeye steak grill time should be 9–12 minutes for a 1-inch steak, and 12–15 minutes for a 1½ inch steak, turning about 1 minute before the halfway point. A meat thermometer should read 130°F. Rest your steaks for 5 minutes before serving, covering lightly with foil.

It's very highly marbled—much of the rich, beefy flavor comes from the fat, making this an exceptionally flavorful steak. Some feel this is the tastiest quick-cooking cut of beef available.
