Picked up this 2lb ribeye. Currently resting on the rack in the fridge and already salted, nothing else.
I typically reverse sear or sous vide then sear in cast iron, but I’m out of SV bags. I don’t have a grill either. It’s been a while since I’ve made a steak this large so I’m soliciting input to get minimal band and a good wall to wall pink on this. I’ve got the crust and searing part but how would you all cook this?

The steamed milk method is superb for 2+ lb steaks
Dry brine, beef tallow in hot cast iron for a good sear on both sides, into the oven at 350-400 for a few minutes per side then back into the cast iron to finish with butter and herb baste.
Honestly I’d just frame it on the wall
With fire.
Microwave on 50% power
I’d definitely use some form of heat
Reverse sear would be perfect.
With love
This steak is worth a trip to the store for a sous vide bag.
If not that, then perhaps foil wrap and slow cook at 250 Fahrenheit until it hits 130, then sear and butter baste.
Grill. I always grill unless they are over 1.5 inches or so. I prefer a little char over the crust of a pan sear. But that’s just me.
Me personally with what you have available? I’d search in the cast iron pan, baste and finish in the oven.
I would grill it. I like to Sous Vide a Filet and NY and then sear. For whatever reason I find Ribeyes do better on the grill.
I have tried reverse sear and haven’t noticed a benefit
Do a poor mans sous vide. Drop it in a freezer bag, leave only a small corner open in the bag. Submerge it slowly so all the air is pushed out. Seal the corner right before u completely sumbmerge it. Voila! Sous vide ready!
Cast iron sear, no oil.
With great care.
Reverse sear
Using heat
Trim the fat and make some tallow first to sear it with
Microwave it
100% over lump charcoal, Guga style
Cast-iron frying pan
I like medium rare+
Air fryer. 400. 3min each side
On a charcoal grill.
Reverse sear, oven at 225 until it reaches 120 and then sear with the skillet
Think steaks I always reverse sear.
Any chance you have Grill Grates?
