Reverse-Sear Ribeye with Caesar Butter

SERVES: 4

If steak cookery stresses you out, this method will be your best friend. Cooking the steaks in a very low oven for a long ish period of time (20-30 mins) before finishing them in a ripping hot skillet allows you to ensure they don’t overcook. You’ll temp them in the oven, pulling them when they reach an internal temperature of 110 F, and then sear them for just a few moments in a skillet at which point they’ll reach a perfect medium rare. It’s a more precise, more controlled way to approach steak cookery, and great for dinner parties–you can do the oven roasting technique in advance, and then re-warm them for a few minutes in the oven before searing them to finish. Make sure to get steaks that are at least 1 ½” thick, or this method will not work, as the time spent in the skillet will end up overcooking them.
