BONE IN RIB EYE RECIPES

Steps:

• First take the steak out of the fridge and salt it to taste. Next, rub some olive oil on both sides of the steak. Now salt again, and pour your crushed peppercorns on to your likings.
• Now here's the important part leave your steak on the counter for about 30 minutes so it can reach room temperature. If you cook while it's still cold it won't cook thoroughly, and you'll have some cold spots in the center. While you're waiting for your steak to reach room temperature, start heating up your grill, or broiler.
• This is the most important part. Allow your grill, or broiler to get really hot before you throw your steak on it. It will cook all the way through very quickly and seal in the juices. So now you are ready to start cooking.
• Grab the steak with tongs or by hand, do not use a fork, and put it on the grill, or broiler. You should only have to flip the steak twice, and more and it's considered counterproductive.
• It should take about 3 minutes on each side to be just under medium. If you're not used to cooking steaks use a cheap poker thermometer, and get a reading. 140 degrees would be considered medium rare, 160 would be medium, and 180 would be really well done. This steak is best between 140-155 degrees.
• When the steak is done cooking take it out, and place it on a glass plate. Let the steak rest for 3 minutes, and you'll notice all kinds of juices just pouring out of the meat this has all the flavor so don't drain it.
• Heat up a pan to a high temperature, and pour these juices into the pan with 2 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar. If the pan is hot enough it will sizzle and start to caramelize instantly. Give it about 10 seconds, and then pour it on top of your steak, and serve.

Steps:

• Rub the steaks on both sides with the olive oil. Place the steaks on a plate, cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Season the steaks with salt and pepper.
• Preheat a stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat. Arrange the steaks in the pan and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Turn the steaks over and top each steak with 2 Tbs. butter and 2 thyme sprigs, letting the butter melt over the steaks. Cook, basting the steaks with the melted butter, for 5 to 7 minutes more for medium-rare, or until done to your liking.
• 
Transfer the steaks to a platter and discard the thyme sprigs. Cover loosely with aluminum foil and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serves 2 to 4.
