Step-by-Step Instructions for Perfectly Seared Bone In Ribeye
- Pat the Bone In Ribeye steaks dry with paper towels and season generously with kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Let rest for 30 minutes.
- Preheat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes until hot.
- Add a generous knob of butter to the skillet and let it melt and foam before adding the seasoned steaks.
- Sear the first side of the steaks for about 4 minutes without disturbing them.
- Flip each steak over to sear the other side for another 4 minutes.
- Add fresh rosemary to the skillet during the last minute of cooking and baste the steaks with melted butter.
- Use a food thermometer to check the internal temperature for perfect medium-rare (125°F to 130°F).
- Remove the steaks from the skillet, cover loosely with foil, and let them rest for 15-20 minutes.
- Garnish with fresh rosemary, slice against the grain, and serve with your favorite sides.

Notes
Ensure steaks are at room temperature before cooking for even doneness. Use a heavy-bottomed skillet for better heat retention.
