Ingredients
 

  • 4 bone-in ribeye steaks, approximately 10-12 ounces each

For the seasoning:

  • 1.5 tablespoons smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon crushed black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dill seed
  • 1 teaspoon red chili flakes

For the compound butter (optional):

  • 4 tablespoons salted butter, softened
  • 1 clove garlic, minced (or 1/3 teaspoon garlic powder)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh basil, minced

Instructions
 

  • Remove your steaks from the refrigerator to bring them closer to room temperature.
  • Prepare the grill temperature to high heat (400-450 degrees Fahrenheit), clean and oil the grill grates.
  • In a small bowl, prepare the dry rub, then apply spice rub generously to all sides of the steak.
  • Place steak directly over a hot grill. Grill steaks for roughly 3 minutes per side for medium-rare steak, or 4-5 minutes for medium well steak.
  • While the steak cook, prepare the compound butter. In a small bowl, add softened butter, garlic and herbs. Stir well to combine, then place in the refrigerator until it's time to serve.
  • For medium rare steaks, pull from the grill when the internal temperature of your steak reads 125-130 degrees Fahrenheit using an instant-read thermometer.
  • Let the steak rest on a plate for 5 minutes. While it's resting, holdover cooking will occur, which raises the internal temperature by 4 to 5 additional degrees.
  • Once rested, slice the steak and top with herb butter. Serve warm.

Notes

I include less salt in my steak rub than you typically see. You can add another 1-2 teaspoons of salt if desired and still have great results.
