I've got a ribeye and a cast iron skillet.

How many minutes on each side and how long in oven and what temp for a perfect medium rare?

Will try that next time. I don't have an hour and 15 minutes tonight. Should have asked earlier.

I usually get the skillet as hot as possible and sear 1.5 mins on one side 2 on the other, check firmness then keep flipping a min per side until MR. I've tried putting it in the oven but found it just as easy to keep it on the stove.

Mix minced garlic and butter to top when done.

You can heat the oven to 425 and get a skillet med.-hi and throw the steak on for 6 minutes then flip it and put it in the oven for 6 minutes. Just another option.

Reverse sear is a rookie cheat. Skip to 1:30 in the video to find your temp and cook your steak like a boss.

2.5 minutes on each side in a real hot skillet. Room temp before searing.

This would take ~2-3 hours. Sure leave that steak on the counter for that long.

I take my thawed ribeyes out of the fridge in the morning and leave out till I cook that night, roughly 9-10 hrs. They'll be fine

Agree with Alton's method except for the resting part. Steaks need to rest 10-15 minutes according to Kenji Lopez (The Food Lab). 2 minutes rest is not long enough

Best method I've found so far is to unpackage the steak and pat dry with paper towels. Then rub on salt and pepper to both sides. Heat your cast iron skillet on the stove to med/high. Add a spoon full of butter and cook for 2.5mins on each side while drizzling butter on top of the steak as it cooks.

This has been proven to be a myth. But I still do it.
