Whether you prefer ribeye, sirloin, or New York strip, this recipe ensures your steak is cooked to perfection every time.
Ingredients:
- 2 boneless ribeye steaks (or your preferred cut, about 1-inch thick)
- 2 tbsp grass-fed butter (for cooking)
- 1 tbsp beef tallow (optional, for added flavor and searing)
- Salt (preferably kosher or sea salt)
- Freshly cracked black pepper (optional, or omit for strict carnivore)
- 1 tsp garlic powder (optional, for extra flavor)
- Fresh rosemary or thyme sprigs (optional, for added fragrance)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Steak: Remove the steaks from the fridge about 30 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature. This ensures even cooking. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- Season: Generously season both sides of the steaks with salt. Optionally, add freshly cracked black pepper and garlic powder for extra flavor. Let the steaks sit while you prepare the pan.
- Preheat the Pan: In a large cast-iron skillet or heavy pan, heat the beef tallow (if using) and butter over medium-high heat until melted and sizzling. The fat should shimmer but not smoke.
- Sear the Steak: Place the steaks in the hot skillet and let them sear without moving them for about 4-5 minutes on the first side, until a golden-brown crust forms. Flip the steaks and cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting time for your preferred doneness.
- Rest and Serve: Remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute. Optionally, garnish with fresh rosemary or thyme. Serve hot and enjoy!
This carnivore steak is a quick, satisfying meal that highlights the natural flavors of the meat. Enjoy it with a side of carnivore-friendly toppings like butter or bone marrow for extra indulgence!
