🥩 Why Ribeye Is the King of the Grill
If you're looking for flavor, Ribeye steak is where it's at. Known for its intense marbling, tender texture, and rich beefy taste, it doesn’t take much to make it shine — just heat, seasoning, and a little rest.
Whether you're cooking for a crowd or hosting a quiet weekend dinner, Ribeye delivers every time.
“Ribeye doesn’t need much — just heat, seasoning, and a good sauce. Chimichurri adds that fresh summer kick we love.”
— Kevin Crofton
🌿 What Is Chimichurri Sauce?
Chimichurri is a bright, garlicky, herb-packed sauce from Argentina made with parsley, garlic, vinegar, and olive oil. It’s perfect for grilled meats, especially a rich cut like Ribeye. The herbs cut through the fat and bring a refreshing contrast to the bold steak flavor.
