# What You’ll Need:

→ Steak

01 - 2 bone-in rib eye steaks (about 1.5 inches thick, 16 oz each)
02 - 2 tbsp olive oil
03 - 2 tsp kosher salt
04 - 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
05 - 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
06 - 2 cloves garlic, smashed

09 - 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
10 - 1 lb asparagus, trimmed
11 - 1 tbsp olive oil
12 - 1/2 tsp kosher salt
13 - 1/4 tsp black pepper
14 - 1 lemon, cut into wedges

# How-To:

01 - Remove rib eye steaks from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling. Pat dry and rub with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
02 - Preheat grill to high heat (about 450-500°F).
03 - Place steaks on the grill. Add rosemary sprigs and smashed garlic on top. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Let steaks rest for 8 minutes, loosely tented with foil.
04 - Place halved potatoes in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain, toss with butter and chopped parsley.
05 - Toss asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill alongside the steaks during the last 5 minutes, turning once until tender and lightly charred.
06 - Serve steaks with grilled asparagus, buttered parsley potatoes, and lemon wedges.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The bone creates incredible flavor and keeps the steak perfectly juicy while it cooks over high heat
  • You get a complete restaurant quality meal with minimal effort and maximum impressiveness
02 -
  • I once skipped the resting step and watched all the beautiful juices run onto the cutting board, leaving me with a tough, dry steak
  • Room temperature meat cooks more evenly and develops better sear marks than cold straight from the fridge
03 -
  • Pat the steaks completely dry before seasoning because moisture prevents proper searing
  • Clean your grill grates while they are hot with a wire brush right before cooking
