I usually just render the fat of the ribeye and sear it in that on a hot cast iron

Do you start by searing the fat cap to get it started or you just throw that bad boy on there

When I buy the lip-on primal, I don’t trim any of the fat—I just slice it into steaks. When I sear, I just throw it in the pan, put a weight on it, don’t touch it for 40 seconds, then flip and repeat. After the second side gets 30-40 seconds to complete the sear, I flip it again and baste it with the fat for 10-15 seconds on each side 😋

I don’t use oil specifically with any prime cuts because there’s plenty of fat that will render from the cap and intermuscular. I also will not use oil with fatty choice cuts like skirt steak. I’ve experimented with so many different oils and fats that I just prefer the results with no oil as described. On occasion I’ll use ghee with a prime cut but that’s more for flavor and drizzling

Nah, I like a bit of ghee or oil. Fat renders nicely and mixes with it 🙂

I like to use a thin layer of avocado oil in my cast iron, works pretty well usually get a great sear out of it

I do not I always use Ghee or Kerrygold Butter.
Where’s the money shot at though?
