Step 1: Prep the Ribeye
Always allow the ribeye to warm to room temperature before you put it on the fire. Marinate the ribeye with lime juice – this will tenderize the meat without affecting the flavor. Season well with Original Seasoning or salt, pepper, and garlic.
While the ribeye thaws to room temperature, wrap the bones in foil, and begin to prepare the Cowboy butter.

Soften the butter and bacon grease, and mix with the thyme, chives, and grated jalapeno. When well combined and smoothed, spoon onto a sheet of plastic wrap and roll up into the shape of a stick of butter. Place in the freezer for 30 minutes or so.
Step 2: Cowboy Butter
Tip: If you’re grilling a Tomahawk Ribeye, wrap the bones with foil before cooking for better presentation.
Step 3: Grill
If you are making this recipe inside, preheat your oven to 325. If you’re cooking on a grill, start by pushing all the coals over to one side. This is the “direct heat” side. The other side is the “indirect heat” side, and the majority of the cooking time will be over here.
Right before cooking, add some fruit wood to the coals for extra flavor.
Place the steaks over the indirect heat side of the grill and close the lid. This process will take around 40 minutes. At the halfway mark, 20 minutes, flip each steak over.
When the internal temperature of the ribeye is 125 degrees, move the steaks over the direct heat side of the grill. Melt some of the cowboy butter over the top and brush all over the meat with a basting brush. Cook the first side for 4 minutes, flip it, and cover the other side with the butter. Allow to cook for 2-3 minutes only.
Step 4: Rest the Steak
I know that there is nothing like a steak fresh off the grill, but this is an important step. Place the steaks on a cutting board or platter and tent aluminum foil over the top. This will allow the steak to rise to the perfect temperature without overcooking.
Step 5: Chow down!
Serve the steaks with cowboy butter. I recommend grilling up some Grilled Parmesan Asparagus and Oven Roasted Potatoes with Bell Peppers.
