Reverse-Seared Bone-In Ribeye Steak (for Two)

Recipe by J. Kenji López-Alt

A step‑by‑step guide to Kenji López‑Alt’s classic reverse‑sear method for a thick, bone‑in ribeye. Season heavily, let the salt work its magic, cook low and slow in the oven, then finish with a blistering sear in a hot cast‑iron pan with butter, garlic, shallots and thyme. Perfectly even medium‑rare from edge to center, served with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.

Critical Success Points

  • Season the steak heavily with salt, pepper, and MSG.
  • Allow the steak to rest uncovered for at least 45 minutes.
  • Cook the steak low‑and‑slow in a 250°F oven until internal temperature reaches 122°F.
  • Pat the steak completely dry before searing.
  • Sear in a smoking‑hot cast‑iron pan.

Safety Warnings

  • The pan will be extremely hot; use oven mitts and keep a lid nearby in case of oil splatter.
  • Handle the probe thermometer carefully; the tip can be sharp.
  • Never leave hot oil unattended.
