I can't remember the last time I had a steak so I had to fix that issue today.

Picked up a couple of bone in ribeyes


Applied a good dose of salt to each steak


30 minutes later rinsed the salt off of the steaks and dried them the best I could. Kind of hard to tell in the pic but the steaks are redder and they have an almost leather feel to them.


Fired up the grill, and got a CI skillet screaming hot and cooked both steaks one at a time. I cooked my Wife's steak 4 min per side and mine 2.5 minutes per side. My steak is what is pictured after the flip


Steaks resting


Used some of the fat drippings from the CI pan and made a quick gravy


Half the steak served with mashed potatoes, the gravy and sauteed green beans cooked in my wok.

Always nice to see a steak seared for additional flavor rather than charred on the grill for sear marks. Great job!!

Totally worth the click of my mouse! I normally let the salt stay on for 45 min per inch of the steak. That is up to 2 hours, but anything after that, the salt does tend to permeate through the steak and make it too salty.
 
I tried the salting thing a time or two and thought it was a good plan. Not sure why I keep forgetting to do it. Thanks for the reminder.
