Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your grill to high heat, about 450°F. Pat dry 2 ribeye steaks (10 oz each) with paper towels.
  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, mix 2 tbsp mesquite seasoning, 1 tsp kosher salt, and 1 tsp black pepper. Rub this mixture evenly on both sides of each ribeye.
  3. Step 3: Drizzle 1 tbsp olive oil over the steaks and rub it in to help the seasoning adhere.
  4. Step 4: Place the steaks on the hot grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, flipping once to develop a good crust.
  5. Step 5: Remove the steaks and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing to allow juices to redistribute.
