Broiling Times

So, how long do you broil ribeye steaks? Here's the rule of thumb...

-- Rare:

Broil the steaks for three (3) minutes on each side to sear each side so that the moisture remains inside the steak (see below for tips on turning the steaks). Once each side has been seared, then the steak is done rare.

-- Medium:

Broil the steaks for three (3) minutes on each side to sear each side so that the moisture remains inside the steak (see below for tips on turning the steaks). Once each side has been seared, then broil each side an additional two (2) minutes. The ribeye steaks should come out medium.

-- Well Done:

Broil the steaks for three (3) minutes on each side to sear each side so that the moisture remains inside the steak (see below for tips on turning the steaks). Once each side has been seared, then broil each side an additional four (4) minutes. The ribeye steaks should come out well done.

Prep and Cooking Tips

-- Before broiling:

Pat the steaks with paper towels to remove all excess moisture. Season them with season salt and black pepper. You may want to add garlic powder. Rub the seasonings into the steaks for best flavor. (Some people like to also rub in olive oil.) Some people avoid marinating ribeyes because marinating adds moisture. You will get better tasting Ribeye steaks if you rub in dry seasonings and olive oil and broil them in dry heat. Place oven rack in such a position to keep the steaks about six (6) inches from the broiling element. Pre-heat the oven and broiling pan on broil (or high broil if you have such a setting on your oven) for about 15 minutes.

-- While broiling:

Keep the oven door slightly ajar. Use tongs to turn the steaks, not a fork. By puncturing the steaks with a fork, you will lose much of the moisture in a steak that makes it tender and juicy. You will need to adjust broiling times according to thickness. Reduce broiling time if the steaks are thin 1/2 to 3/4 inch. If the steaks are more than an inch thick, then increase broiling times an additional one (1) or two (2) minutes.

-- After broiling:

For juicier ribeye steaks, allow them to stand for five (5) minutes before serving.
