Cook Time 1 hour

Ingredients

  • 2 Cote de Boeuf (rib eye steaks with the bone in)
  • 0.5 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Thick slabs is better than two thin steaks, so have your butcher cut you 1.5 – 2 inches thick pieces.
  • Rinse the steak clean under cold water, and pat dry with a paper towel. Apply a dry brine with the salt, at least 2 hours before the cook.
  • Turn your oven on, set it to 110° C / 225° F, as we will cook the steaks using indirect heat. Place the steaks in an oven pan and stick the thermometer probe in the thickest part.

  • Cook them until the internal temperature is 50° C / 122° F. Take them out of the oven and let them rest for 10 minutes.
  • Now it’s time to sear them. Make sure the meat surface is relatively dry, you get a lot better charring that way. Pat them dry with a paper towel if needed.
  • Put a frying pan (cast iron if available) on the stove, set it to high heat. Add a dash of oil or butter, and add the steaks when it is hot n’ ready. Give them a nice sear on each side, flip often, and check their temperature.
  • They’re done when they it 60° . C/ 140° F. Again, remove them from the stove and let them rest a while before serving. Get a really sharp knife and cut thick slices, it makes for a nice presentation.
