Instructions

Step 1: Remove the 2 ribeye steaks from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling and pat dry with paper towels. Season both sides evenly with 1/2 tbsp kosher salt and 1/2 tbsp freshly ground black pepper.
Step 2: Prepare a charcoal grill for direct high heat (around 500°F). Brush the grill grates with 1 tbsp olive oil to prevent sticking.
Step 3: Place the steaks on the grill directly over the coals and cook for 4-5 minutes without moving to develop a good sear. Flip and grill for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare doneness, or longer depending on your preferred temperature.
Step 4: While steaks grill, mix together 4 tbsp softened unsalted butter, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley in a small bowl.
Step 5: Remove steaks from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes. Top each steak with half of the garlic butter to melt over the hot surface before serving.
