Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

20 ounces rib-eye steak, bone-in
1 tablespoon dark-roast coffee, finely ground
2 tablespoons smoked paprika
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons onion powder
1 tablespoon salt
black pepper, 10 "cranks" of the mill
2 limes, zested
2 Thai chilies, stems removed, thinly sliced, may substitute serrano or bird chilies
1 cup grapeseed oil
3 tablespoons grapeseed oil

Steps:

For the marinade: In a bowl, combine coffee, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, lime zest, and sliced chili peppers. Stir; then whisk in 1 cup of oil. The marinade should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Place the rib-eye in a baking dish and spread evenly with the marinade on both sides. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 3 hours.
Cook the steak: Preheat oven to 375 F. Heat a cast-iron skillet to smoking and add 3 tablespoons of grapeseed oil. Place the rib-eye into the pan to sear, about 2 minutes. When it's golden brown around the edges, place in the oven and cook approximately 12 minutes or until a thermometer registers between 138-145 F. After 7 minutes, flip the steak and cook another 5 minutes.
Remove steak from from the oven and allow meat to rest in the pan for 4 minutes to lock in juices. Slice against the grain and serve.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

Spice Rub
2 tablespoons Aleppo pepper
2 tablespoons finely ground coffee beans
2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons (packed) dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons mustard powder
3/4 teaspoon chili powder
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
Steak
1 2-inch-2 1/4-inch-thick bone-in beef rib eye (about 2-2 1/2 pounds), preferably dry-aged, at room temperature for 1 hour
2 teaspoons kosher salt
4 tablespoons grapeseed or vegetable oil, divided
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 garlic clove, lightly crushed
4 sprigs thyme
1 sprig rosemary
Flaky or coarse sea salt

Ingredient Info
Aleppo pepper is available at some specialty foods stores and wholespice.com. Smoked paprika is available at most supermarkets.

Steps:

Spice Rub Mix all ingredients in a medium bowl. Transfer to an airtight container. DO AHEAD: Spice rub can be made 1 month ahead. Store airtight at room temperature. Steak Preheat oven to 400°. Set a wire rack inside a large rimmed baking sheet. Season steak with kosher salt and 2 tablespoons spice rub, pressing onto all sides of meat and adding more spice rub by the teaspoonful if needed to coat entire surface. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet over high heat. When oil begins to shimmer, place steak in skillet (be sure to have fan on high; the rub creates some smoke). Sear steak for 1 minute (any longer and the rub will start to burn). Transfer steak to a plate and carefully drain fat from skillet. Wipe skillet clean with a paper towel. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in skillet and sear other side of steak for 1 minute. Add butter, garlic, and herbs to skillet; cook until butter is foamy. Carefully tip skillet and, using a large spoon, baste steak repeatedly with butter for 1 minute. Turn steak and baste other side for 1 minute. Pile herbs on top of steak, transfer skillet to oven, and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into center of meat registers 125° for medium, 15-17 minutes. Transfer steak to prepared rack; let rest for 20 minutes. Cut steak from bone, slice, and sprinkle with sea salt.
