Beef Ribeye Roast Recipe Instructions
Delivered chilled so no need to defrost. Once completely defrosted open the pack and let the meat "breathe" for at least 15 minutes at room temperature. You will see its color changing and becoming more vivid as it is exposed to oxygen. Contrary to grass-fed and grain-finished beef, fresh grass-fed and grass-finished beef will always have a slightly sour note - don't be bothered by it.
Because the block comes roast/steak ready there is no need to trim off any fat. You can either prepare a couple of roasts, or slice it into some nice thick steaks. In our presentation, we will cut part of the block into two one-pound steaks.
Generally, great quality meat does not require heavy seasoning and marinades, feel free to use your favorite steak spice mix. We use sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
We recommend the cast-iron skillet. Use non-salted butter and a few fresh thyme leaves. Heat up the fry-pan to low heat and let the fry-pan get hot first before you place the steaks inside. You want to hear it sizzling.
The magic formula is to cook low and slow and to keep turning often. If your steaks are thick enough you need to make them stand and cook the sides as well. Use a meat thermometer and make sure not to overcook as grass-fed beef tends to get tougher the longer you cook it. We highly recommend medium-rare - measure the core temperature and take the steaks off the heat once the temperature reaches 50 degrees Celsius (120 degrees Fahrenheit).
Place the steaks on a cutting board and let the steaks rest for at least 5 minutes as the meat continues to cook internally on residual heat.
Perfectly done medium-rare steak. Slice and serve. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes to your liking. Enjoy while warm and buttery soft for the best experience.
Grass-fed premium grade beef. Ethically raised and all free of nasties! Enjoy!
