Ribeye steaks are the rock stars of the steak world. The marbling—those streaks of fat running through the meat—melts during grilling, infusing the steak with incredible juiciness and flavor. When seasoned right and grilled to perfection, the crust forms this mouthwatering, slightly crispy exterior while keeping the inside tender and rich. Add some garlic, herbs, and a pat of butter, and you’re in steak heaven. It’s all about that balance of texture, flavor, and pure satisfaction. 🥩🔥
