Grilling the first batch of ribeyes from a half we put in the freezer last week. All of my adult life I've only used black pepper and garlic to grill a steak.

Opinions???

Besides that I'm ugly and stupid...???

If it is a good steak it should only need salt and pepper.

Salt and pepper, that's about it.

SPG, a couple drops W-sauce rubbed around.

Brush with Olive Oil before the grill. (Helps them crust nice)

Just salt and pepper, cooked to medium rare with a bowl of ketchup for dipping sauce.😋

Salt, pepper and garlic for me.

Just grilled some tonight. My wife is out of town, and I grilled a ribeye for me and my 9 year old boy ate his first steak, a small strip. Daughter and younger son had the usual burger

Yeah, I want a ribeye to taste like a ribeye. Don't wreck it. Best meat on the planet.
Posted By: philgood80 Re: Season a Steak - 07/01/22
Another vote for Cavenders or some Kinders Woodfired Garlic. Either with salt and pepper.

Just don’t put any sauce on it!

Coat it with coarse salt on both sides and bring it to room temperature. Heat up grill to high and throw in on. Turn over once and the enjoy.

Agree ☝🏽 On a well marbled and choice cut, I’m salt and pepper. Let the steak flavor rise.

You could do worse. If you want to get real fancy, rub the steak with butter so the seasoning sticks better.

Salt and pepper and let it sit in your fridge overnight. Let it get to room temp before cooking and then grill it.

Cavenders or coarse salt. Let them sit for abit.
Posted By: bhemry Re: Season a Steak - 07/02/22
Sprinkle coarse salt at least an hour before cooking, then I use Montreal seasoning.
Posted By: johnw Re: Season a Steak - 07/02/22
For all of the salt and pepper crowd...

I didn't know beef could be served without garlic??? Is that even legal or safe?
Unheard of, IME....

FWIW, the steaks tonight served with steamed asparagus and butter fried mushrooms was about a perfect meal.

I was a Montreal seasoning fan for a while then I discovered Chicago Seasoning and liked it much better. Now days I just use coarse sea salt and fresh cracked pepper, but if I want to do something a little more different for what ever reason I then grab Citizen Kane steak seasoning. It is from a restaurant here in StLouis. It takes the Montreal and the Chicago to where it wants to be one day.

I use garlic salt and pepper, both generously applied before throwing o the grill. Works great.
Posted By: RS308MX Re: Season a Steak - 07/02/22
I rub with a little olive oil, sprinkle on some Montreal steak seasoning and slap in on a hot grill. Pull it off the grill at 120° and let it rest for 5 minutes. Perfect medium rare, which is how we like steaks.

No seasoning needed, just slather it in A-1 when done.

Posted By: cra1948 Re: Season a Steak - 07/02/22
I'll usually rub a ribeye with kosher salt, black pepper and granulated garlic, wrap it in plastic wrap and leave it in the refrigerator overnight. Get it out a couple of hours before cooking to sit at room temp. I used to buy into that "only flip it once" business, but no more. I'll turn it a few times. I keep my instant read thermometer handy and when it hits 120 to 125 internal take it off and let it sit covered while I'm fixing other stuff.

A steak needs something with it. At our house it's usually caramelized onions and/or portobello mushrooms sliced thick and cooked in a pan with a quarter pound of butter, black pepper and a quarter cup of sweet vermouth, simmered down to a nice reduction....some fresh asparagus or green beans lightly saute'ed and brightened up with a dusting of dill...little red potatoes, boiled, drained, back to the pot over heat to dry then swirled around in the pot with good shot of butter, salt and pepper.... at one time I'd have said wash it down with a full-bodied cab, but these days I'd lean more toward a nice pinot noir or tempranillo, but that's just me.

Posted By: gitem_12 Re: Season a Steak - 07/02/22
in all seriousness, get a bare, clean skilet smoking hot. season your steak with S&P. put a couple pads of unsalted butter in the skilet along with a couple cloves of garlic and a few sprigs of fresh rosemary. ay your steak in and add some more butter. take a spoon and baste the steak with the hot butter. sear ALL sides, flip and baste again. about 3 minutes of sear per side should give you medium rare and a great crust

Throw them fuggers directly in the hot coals. Seasoning? just hawk a loogie on them bishes before flipping.

Posted By: Mr_Harry Re: Season a Steak - 07/02/22
I’m down with Diamond Crystal kosher salt and coarsely ground black pepper. Or “butcher grind” black pepper if you can’t be bothered to grind your own.

On a larger cut or roast, like end to end stuff done in the oven, I like to wet the meat with some Worcestershire before applying the salt and pepper. And I also hit it hard with granulated garlic.

I suppose no reason not to apply the garlic to steaks as well. Not sure why I do not. Actually, I think the coating/rub can become too gummy or … coated?… and it effs up the sear in a pan or on a grill.

That’s fair to. It’s just the primary salt I’ve been working with professionally for over 30 years, so, my fingers literally know it. I can salt large - batch items like 4 or 5 gallons of a thing by eye and handful. Simply due to familiarity.

Taste it off, and adjust. Usually by a matter of a couple/few tablespoons.

Super easy to work with salting individual cuts of protein or sautéed dishes.

But late in my career I am finding the taste of sea salt is more delicious in certain things. Seasoning a protein could be potentially included in that list, but seemingly anything ‘tomato’ most definitely is. Don’t know why… could be the COVID’s? Just kidding.

Best steak is a filet mignon. A ribeye will do just fine in the absence of a filet, however.

Garlic on grilled deer meat is a must. It’s optional for me on beef steaks.

Either should be served rare, medium rare for the ladies and children.

Steak sauce should be reserved for hamburger steaks, and ketchup on a steak should be a hanging offense.

Tenderloin is tender.
Big deal.
So is hamburger. Or bologna.

Ribeye has flavor and fat.
And ain't tough if not incinerated.
Posted By: antlers Re: Season a Steak - 07/02/22
Putting a couple of pats of butter on a ribeye while it’s resting for 5 minutes after cooking enhances the flavor, to me, of an already damn good steak that’s been seasoned with salt and pepper.

If ya sear at high temp, pre applied pepper won't hold up & just burns off.

When I've applied a pat of butter just before the resting stage, 10 min is better than 5 IMO, but 5 minutes minimum at least, then apply fresh ground pepper. That's when it will show up on yer tastey buds.

I like mine sprayed with duck fat, then seasoned with Lawrys and coarse black pepper. When it comes off the grill at rare I will hit it with a light sprinkle of Maldon sea salt. Sometimes I add a couple very small slices of Kerrygold too.

Look at the ingredients in Doe’s dry rub steak seasoning. Salt, garlic, Worcestershire sauce powder, onion powder, soy sauce powder.

I apply a light coat of Worcestershire sauce, then coarse salt and fine ground pepper. Cook HOT, turning every 60 seconds. Let sit for 4 minutes, pat of butter on top.

Delicious.

Cook it on hot grill so it comes out extra rare, maybe 2 minutes per side. Then I apply salt as i eat it. No pepper required for a good steak.

So you think your way is absolute and the only way to cook a [bleep] steak? People have different tastes that's why a plethora of spices are readily available. Don't be bashing people that like their food cooked differently, dick head.

On cooking steak.....
Posted By: johnw Re: Season a Steak - 07/02/22
In the years I've been buying and eating beef, I've always preferred to by it on the hoof and have it processed at the local locker plant. Most of the time it's calves raised by family or local 4H kids. Somebody's pet calf named clover, or buttercup. Most of the time there has been no option to "select" a cut of beef in the butcher's case. You get what you get, and it comes wrapped and frozen on wire trays from the locker plant freezer. (Bring your own boxes, and have your freezer ready to receive) This does have the advantage of steaks being cut your way, and wrapped in whatever number of steaks you choose, but you don't get to look your beef over before buying.

And I've never been disappointed overall, with the beef I bought. Maybe 2wice, in the course of 30-35 halves, I've found that some of the steaks or roasts were a bit gristly, or chewy.
This half, at 509 hanging weight, was the first that I just bought straight from the locker with no idea of the source, or who raised it. I wondered what I'd get, but after a couple of packages of burger, one chuck roast, and these steaks tonight, I'd guess that we've done as well as we ever did. Three ribeyes polished off with not a scrap left on any plate.

The BIL, who has raised most of our calves is doing grandkid stuff that requires a bunch of driving and being gone. He had a nephew that would feed calves, or sometimes I'd help, but time passes and things change. This spring I looked hard to find a calf raised by someone I know. I was always a day late on everything. But based on my experience this time, I'd trust the locker to take care of us anytime.

Prices are up. Seems like the other day I was buying halves for ~$400, cut wrapped and frozen. $1398.85 was the check I wrote a week ago. The price raises my eyebrows, but I'm glad to do it this way,rather than deal with Kroger, or County Market. They don't exactly seem cheap either.

I don't know what Rosemary is, really. Googled it,and I'll likely try it. Maybe the wife knows?
Lot's of advice on salt and pepper. Kosher salt, course salt, or whatever. I've never salted a steak, before or after grilling.
Here and there I've used seasoning mixes or rubs, so I've no doubt they contained salt.

Posted By: cra1948 Re: Season a Steak - 07/02/22
If it's going to be more than just the wife and I, I like to get a porterhouse cut about 3 or 3 1/2 inches thick, granulated garlic and S&P rub a couple of days ahead, let it stand at room temp a few hours before cooking, fix a hot-side/cool-side charcoal fire and stand it up on the grill on the cool side, strip toward the hot side, loin away from the hot side, a remote-reading thermometer probe in the strip and one in the loin, cover the grill and roast that sucker up to 95 or 100 degrees internal. Then I take the probes out and lay it down on the hot side over the coals, flipping frequently, checking with the instant read thermometer until I get 120 - 125 internal. Let it rest a while, then take strip and loin off the bone whole, slice both across the grain into 1/2" slices and reassemble around the bone on the serving platter. Makes a nice presentation and everybody can find what they like from rare to medium rare.

OP, I'm one of the people who will get a gout attack if I eat beef. So believe me when I tell you, when I (rarely) DO, I do it right because I'm gonna pay dearly for it.

A little salt, a little black pepper, and a little of the best garlic powder or granulated garlic you can find. Not much of any of them. Let the beef shine!
I'll probably start brushing with olive oil though as that makes a lot of sense.
And I like mine mediume rare, leaning medium if it has to lean at all.

But if I were feeling crazy I might shake some of the Konriko Chipotle seasoning on a steak. Especially if it's not a good ribeye.

I love a good strip steak, or at least I use to. After radiation treatment on my throat I have issues swallowing certain meats that don’t have sufficient fat content. Chicken breast if cooked fully I might as well try to swallow sawdust. Lean pork like center cut chops get too dry for me. Strip steaks unless a really good one will do the same. Rib eyes no issue. Chicken thighs good to go. Pork rib chops yep. Pork steaks good.
Posted By: ironbender Re: Season a Steak - 07/02/22
I enjoy all kinds of beef, and agree with you, Jim.

The fat in a ribeye is what gives it the flavor.
No fat; no flavor.
Know fat; know flavor.

Of Most ribeyes I’ve seen and had, close to half gets thrown away, there’s that much separate fat that’s not marbled through the meat.

In truth, my favorite steak is a carefully selected Chuck steak. It must have the fat marbled (speckled) through it - juicy and tasty. If it’s streaked and striated, it’ll be tough and chewy.
Posted By: Jim_Conrad Re: Season a Steak - 07/02/22
Oh hell...if that were true nobody would ever eat venison ever again.

The only time I use Olive Oil on beef is to skillet sear a roast before roasting or crock potting. Even then I use garlic.

I've always liked black pepper and garlic on a steak, but if I had to make do with ONE seasoning, make it garlic. Garlic is THE beef (pork, chicken, lamb, venison, name your meat) seasoning

Tendrloin needs something. It's tender, but that's all it is, it's the least flavorful cut of beef you can get.

My PaPa raised beef, butchered for some of the finest restaurants in Columbia, Rock Hill, and Charlotte. I got to know a couple of chefs at these upper end restaurants.

Rib Eye, one particular chef had a great following, his secret was to ALWAYS cook the steaks frozen, that way the middle did not over cook. FOlks that like a Med Rare steak, pay particular attention to the "cook frozen" concept. Depending on how thick, 4-5 minutes per side, in the oven broiler.

A little seasoning salt and a pat of bullet as it comes out of the oven, seals the deal.

I ddn't read the whole thread but didn't see anyone mention searing the steak. I always let the steak reach room temperature. Get the grill as hot as it will go. Sear on each side for one minute. Then cook it for however long it takes to your desired taste. My cooking time seems to get shorter and shorter as I prefer a med rare steak. I'll use salt and pepper sometimes, Kinder sometimes, Montreals sometimes and some times I just cook them plain. But always a Ribeye and always cooked the same.

If you prefer medium rare, don’t warm the steak first. Easier to keep the center from overcooking if it starts out cold.

NICE! I’ve been on a rant about the “Sirloin RUMP Tip” (as my butcher calls it) for awhile now. Last of the ‘secret cuts’ I think. It’s actually a specific lobe or cut off of the Peteite sirloin, or a part of the steak you’re showing. They’re awesome. And if you can find them in USDA Prime…. Man oh man and they’re still short money.

After thawing the steak I put it in a zip lock bag with some garlic flavored olive oil and seasonings, salt, pepper and some other stuff sometimes if the mood strikes.

Then I squeeze the air out and seal. Place it into a big bowl of hot tap water to warm the whole piece of meat (usually 15 minutes or so is good, can't over do it really. Change water if it cools). If done correctly the meat feels gross when you take it out. Remove from bag prior to cooking.
Throw it on a hot grill 2-3 minutes on each side depending on thickness. Comes out perfect every time. Use charcoal and it doesn't hurt to throw a couple chunks of smoking wood in there. Try it before you knock it.
