Prep: Seasoned simply with kosher salt, cracked black pepper, garlic powder, and a touch of smoked paprika.
-
Cooking Method: Reverse-seared or grilled to your preferred doneness (medium-rare recommended), finished with a garlic herb butter baste (butter, rosemary, thyme, and smashed garlic cloves).
-
Finish: Rested, then sliced against the grain for serving with juices spooned over.
Surf: Garlic Butter Shrimp or Lobster Tail
-
Option 1: Jumbo shrimp, sautéed in garlic butter with a hint of lemon and parsley.
-
Option 2: Broiled lobster tail, brushed with lemon-garlic butter and lightly broiled until golden and tender.
-
Served atop or alongside the ribeye for an elegant surf & turf pairing.
Side 1: Loaded Baked Potato
-
Baked until fluffy inside and crisp on the outside.
-
Toppings: Butter, sour cream, shredded cheddar, crumbled bacon, chopped green onions, and a sprinkle of chives.
-
Optional: A dash of smoked paprika or chili flakes for heat.
Side 2: Roasted Asparagus
-
Lightly tossed in olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Roasted until just tender with slight char.

Finished with a squeeze of lemon and a sprinkle of parmesan or crushed almonds for texture.
🍷 Pairing Suggestion
-
A full-bodied red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon or a bold Malbec complements the richness of the ribeye.
-
For white wine lovers (especially with shrimp/lobster), a buttery Chardonnay works beautifully.
