The Story Behind This Steak
Nothing says premium beef like a bone-in ribeye cooked to perfection. Here at Best Damn Beef, we believe that great steak should be simple, bold, and packed with flavor. That’s why we raise our cattle with care, respect, and no unnecessary nonsense—just hormone-free, grass-fed, grain-finished beef that speaks for itself.
This cowboy-style ribeye is a nod to the way steak should be: pan-seared in a cast iron skillet for a golden crust, basted in garlicky cowboy butter, and served sizzling hot. Whether you're grilling outdoors or cooking inside, this ribeye recipe will have you feeling like you're dining under the wide-open sky.
Why Ribeye?
Ribeye is one of the most flavorful, juicy, and tender cuts of beef, thanks to its natural marbling. When you start with Best Damn Beef Ribeye, you don’t need much—just a hot skillet, simple seasonings, and a spoonful of cowboy butter to take it to the next level.
