Grilled Rib-Eye Steak

Ingredients:

2 Rib-eye steaks (8oz. each or 240g each)

Drizzle of olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

Lobster Butter

 

Method:

Heat grill over high heat.

Drizzle steaks with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.

Place steaks on hot grill and cook for 3-4 minutes.

Rotate the steaks 90 degrees and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

Flip the steak and cook for 4-5 minutes.

This should have your steaks nicely charred and medium-rare. Depending on how you like your steaks, you will want to adjust the timing.

Cut a 3-4 inch ring of the lobster butter and place over each steak.

Let the steak rest 3-4 minutes while the butter melts before serving.
