Pan-Searing and Oven Finish:
1. Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F).
2. Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
3. Sear ribeye on all sides, including the bone, until well-browned.
4. Transfer pan to preheated oven and roast until desired doneness.


Reverse Sear:
1. Preheat oven to a low temperature of 100-120°C (225-250°F).
2. Slow-roast the ribeye on a wire rack on a baking sheet until about 10-15 degrees below your desired final temperature.
3. Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over very high heat. Sear the ribeye on all sides, including the bone, 1-2 minutes per side for a deeply browned crust.


Grilling:
1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
2. Sear the ribeye over direct heat for a few minutes per side to get a nice char, including the bone.
3. Move to indirect heat and continue cooking, closing the grill lid, until desired doneness.


Tips:
- Thermometer is Your Friend: Use a meat thermometer, aiming for medium-rare (54-57°C/130-135°F).
- Rest, Then Slice: Let the ribeye rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to ensure maximum juiciness.
- Carve Along the Bone: Slice the meat away from the bone for serving.

Rare (52-55°C / 125-130°F): Very soft texture, very red center. Delivers maximum beefy flavor and excellent tenderness.

Medium-Rare (57-60°C / 135-140°F): Highly recommended for ribeye. The ideal balance of tenderness, juiciness, and incredible flavor. Center is bright pink and warm.

Medium (63-65°C / 145-150°F): Slightly firmer texture, light pink center. Still tender and flavorful, with the marbling in MB3+ helping to manage dryness.

Medium-Well (68-70°C / 155-160°F): Pinkish-gray center, noticeably firmer. Suitable if you prefer a more cooked-through steak, but some tenderness may be lost.

Well-Done (Above 71°C / 160°F): Generally not recommended, especially for a prime ribeye, as it can become tough and dry.
