The best way is to cook the Ribeye on a grill, or start it on a grill and finish it in the oven (if you are dealing with a thicker piece). Continue reading if you want to read Chef Carlos Rodriguez's recipe walkthrough.

 
   Ingredients:
 
Salt and Pepper (To Taste)
Vegetable Oil (As Needed)
How to prepare the steak:
  1. Prepare a charcoal grill or turn on your gas grill so one side is hot, and other side is cool, and scrape the grates to remove any old material once hot.
  2. Season Ribeye with seasoning of choice on both sides of the meat.
  3. With an old cotton towel or paper towel, oil the grates of your grill to prevent the meat from sticking.
  4. Place steak onto the grates and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Turn the steak over 3 times, with 2-3-minute cooking intervals, to make typical diamond marks on both sides.
  6. Place chop so that the meat is now over the cool side of the grill.
  7. If your grill is too small, mark the meat as above, and then place the steak on an oven-safe pan, and place into a 300°F oven to finish cooking to desired temperature. 120°F will give you a medium-rare to medium doneness.
  8. There will be residual heat in the steaks from cooking. Pull them off the heat a little under where you want to them be when finished.
  9. Place steak on a plate to rest for 8-10 minutes to reabsorb the juices and relax the meat fibers.
