Cast iron preferably. Oven to MAXIMUM POWER. Brush steak with oil, salt, pepper. Skillet on high. 90ish seconds each side, finish in oven until done how you like. Finish with some butter in top for extra arterie lubrication.

If you wanna go nuts, build a pan sauce after.

really, max power on the oven? I've been reading everything from 250-350

For a ribeye I'd rather cook it really fast. Salamander at a steakhouse is 900+

Hotter the better on the oven.

I dont use oil on the outside but some do.

Im gonna go 550. How long do you think it should be in the oven? About an inch thick

For an inch steak. Turn your oven off. It's not needed. Just use the stove top for 90 seconds per side.

I hear you for most other steaks but I think the ribeye should be cooked a bit longer. Allows the marbled fat to melt down more and impart more flavor without being chewy from the solid fat.

Yeah, rIbeyes need a bit longer especially with the different densities between the different muscles in the steak.

You need a thermometer to be sure

Negative. Ribeye is one of the easiest cuts for the poke test. NY strip one of the most difficult.

Also, let the steak come up to room temp first. If you do, under 2 mins in oven.

Squeeze some fresh lime on the steak while cooking it with some butter in pan.

A good idea for most any protein.

I sear mine in bacon grease when I do the stove/oven cook.

Use Alton Brown's method in the oven. So easy, so good. I haven't cooked a steak on a grill since I started doing it his way.

Yeah, there's gonna be smoke. As long as you're not cooking more than a couple steaks, you should be ok.
