Ingredients

1

Scaled to 1 serving (0.5x)

  • 0.5 ribeye steak, 1.5 inch thick (Bone-in or boneless, both work)
  • coarse salt (About 1 tsp per side)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Salt the ribeye on both sides. Rest uncovered on a rack for 45 minutes at room temp. This dries the surface for a better crust.

  2. 2

    Oven to 250F. Place steak on a rack over a sheet pan. Cook until internal temp hits 115F, about 25-30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Pull the steak. Crank a cast iron to screaming hot with no oil. The steak has enough fat.

  4. 4

    Sear 60-75 seconds per side. Stand it on the fat cap for 30 seconds to render.

  5. 5

    Rest 5 minutes uncovered. Slice against the grain.
