Print Recipe

A simple yet indulgent recipe featuring a juicy grilled ribeye topped with a creamy, tangy blue cheese butter that melts into a luscious sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ribeye steak, 1 to 1.5 inches thick, about 12–16 ounces
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 ounces blue cheese, crumbled (such as creamy Gorgonzola or Roquefort)
  • 1 small garlic clove, finely minced (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine softened butter, crumbled blue cheese, minced garlic (if using), and chopped parsley. Mix gently until well blended but still slightly chunky. Set aside or refrigerate if you want it firmer (bring to room temperature before serving).
  2. Take the ribeye out of the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes to ensure even cooking.
  3. Pat the ribeye dry with paper towels. Generously season both sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  4. Preheat your grill or cast-iron grill pan over medium-high heat until very hot (around 450°F). If using a grill, lightly oil the grates.
  5. Place the steak on the hot grill or pan. Cook for about 4-6 minutes on the first side without moving it to develop a crust. Flip and cook another 4-6 minutes for medium-rare (internal temperature 130-135°F). Adjust cooking time for preferred doneness.
  6. Transfer the ribeye to a plate and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let rest for 5-10 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
  7. While the steak rests, spoon a generous dollop of blue cheese butter on top. The warmth will melt it slowly, creating a luscious sauce.
  8. Slice the steak against the grain and serve immediately with your favorite sides.

Notes

Do not skip the resting step to ensure a juicy steak. Use an instant-read thermometer to check doneness. For a smoother blue cheese butter, whip gently but avoid over-softening. Preheat grill or pan for at least 10 minutes for a good sear. For dairy-free options, substitute butter and blue cheese with plant-based alternatives.
