I decided to reverse seat some rib caps. I got some NY Strips, as well.

Start with kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper.


Cooked at 250 until 115 degrees.


Seared 're for a couple of minutes and served 're family style.


The rib cabs were tender as butter, but the strips had a little bit more flavor. Both outstanding. The co-star was the Non-GMO white corn I got. Amazing stuff...

I've been a loyal fan of the ribeye for decades with the cap being my favorite part of it. In the past couple of years I have been ordering and cooking NY strips. They just taste better.

Nice meal you have there.

Agreed. I've always been a NY Strip guy. I saw the caps at Costco and picked 'em up. Loved them and will get them again. Still a strip guy, though...

I had a cap a few weeks ago for the first time. When I put that first bite in my mouth a chorus of Angels from upon High came down and washed me over with the most beautiful music I've ever heard.

Solid work OP. I too have recently made the switch from ribeye to strip. They just taste better. I have yet to try a ribeye cap steak. Might have to go hit Costco for dinner tonight.

Ok. I'm in. Next steak I RS is gonna be a strip. Not sure why. I think I'm tired of all that fat on a ribeye.

Not sure what rock you've been living under, but I find it hard to believe that you've never had a rib eye or prime rib in your life.

The cap...

I've never purchased caps. Not like the OP did. And, I live under a fairly nice rock.

looks great Jax.

Only thing you gotta worry about with these ribeye caps from Costco is blade tenderizing and the that they're rolled up raw meat. If you wouldn't eat a burger with some pink in it, I would hesitate to eat a rolled up / reverse seared ribeye cap thats been blade tenderized. Basically they could be introducing whatever bacteria in the butcher shop into the meats when they run it through the tenderizer. I'm not afraid, but I'm a healthy fat boy in my 20's.

Here's an article on it: LINK

A Costco spokesman told us all of its beef is tenderized by machines except for filets and flank steaks.


I am disappoint.

The only beef I've bought at Costco is for stew, as I can normally find other choice beef cheaper at Albertsons on sale. Now I'll have to see if Albertsons does it. The good news, labeling is now required as of May 2016.

I can validate your worries. I fell in love the moment I saw ribeye caps at Costco. I bought them on 2 separate occasions. The wife and I blew mud shortly thereafter each time. It kind of ruined date night each time.

Now I only get it to treat the in-laws when they're in town.
