Really, the most important part of this recipe is finding the perfect cut of meat. From there, it is all about using butter and fresh herbs to enhance its natural flavor and tenderness! I will tell you everything you need to know about picking the perfect ribeye steak in my tips section below. First, let’s talk about how simple the ingredients in this recipe are! Measurements for each ingredient can be found in the printable recipe card at the end of the post.

Ribeye Steak: I like to use ribeye with a lot of marbling. This will ensure that they are soft and tender after being cooked.
Salt and Pepper: This is the foundation of the steak’s flavor. Heavily seasoning both sides of your steak will help flavors infuse once you start cooking.
Olive Oil: Olive oil adds moisture to your steak. Also, it helps it to cook up perfectly.
Butter: Butter not only adds amazing flavor and richness to your steak, but keeps it soft and tender.
Garlic: Garlic will make your ribeye steak have the most perfect savory flavor. To add, garlic pairs really well with rosemary. You will love this flavor combination!
Fresh Rosemary and Thyme: Rosemary adds an earthy, minty flavor while thyme is sharp and peppery. Together, they make a winning aromatic combination.

Ribeye Steak Instructions

Making a tasty ribeye steak is something even beginner cooks can accomplish. The fresh ingredients do a lot of the heavy lifting. So, all you have to do is keep an eye on your steak as it cooks. An in-depth guide to cooking times can be found in my graphic below!

Let Steak Rest: To begin, let the steak rest for 30 minutes to come to room temperature. Salt and pepper to taste.
Prep Skillet and Sear: Next, in a medium sized skillet over medium high heat add the olive oil. Once it starts to smoke add the steaks to the skillet. Sear on all of the sides until they have a golden brown crust.
Add Butter and Herbs: Add the butter and let melt in the skillet. Add in the garlic and fresh sprigs.
Reduce Heat and Continue Cooking: Reduce the heat to medium and let them cook until they reach the desired internal temperature. Lastly, spoon the butter over the steak while they are cooking.

The Best Ribeye Steak Tips

From picking the perfect steak to ensuring it is cooked impeccably, these great ribeye steak tips will not let you down! From there, you can easily create an unforgettable dinner your family will go crazy over!

Choosing Your Steak: Look for ribeye cuts with plenty of marbling. These little flecks of fat meld into your ribeye during the cooking process and help it become soft and tender. Also, try to pick a ribeye steak that is at least an inch thick. The thicker the steak, the more easily you are able to prepare it to your chosen temperature without losing any flavor or texture.
Grass-fed or Grain-fed: Grass-fed cows typically yield leaner meat because of their diet and ability to free roam. This makes it a healthier choice with a slightly more complex flavor compared to grain-fed steaks.
Using Frozen Steak: If using frozen steak, thaw completely before cooking.
Keep Your Pan Hot: Make sure your pan is hot before adding your steak or it won’t sear properly.
Searing Your Steaks: If you sear the outside of your meat, you will make sure all of the tasty juices are sealed inside.
Use a Meat Thermometer: Using a thermometer takes the guesswork out of cooking your ribeye steak. It is the easiest way to know when the steak has reached your desired temperature. Refer to my graphic for temperatures of each level of steak doneness.
Allow Steak to Rest: Resting your ribeye after cooking allows the juices to reabsorb and distribute throughout your meat, leaving you with the most juicy and tender result.

What to Serve With The Ultimate Ribeye Steak

With a steak this good, you have to serve it up alongside other hearty, tasty sides! Steak and potatoes is always a classic- whether you want mashed, roasted, or hasselback potatoes, the flavor of each will pair perfectly with a tender, flavorful steak. I also like serving steaks up with some fresh grilled veggies and a casserole for a complete, satisfying meal.

Amazing Homemade Applesauce

Homemade applesauce is a simple way to incorporate all of the apples that I have in my fridge! PLUS as a bonus, my kids are more inclined to eat something so simple!

Homemade applesauce is so versatile! You can serve it at breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert or you can use it as a quick snack or make your own to add to recipes that use it as an ingredient! Try topping this on my granola or on cinnamon almonds! You can also use it as the fresh applesauce needed in my carrot cake!

Why is Homemade Applesauce So Amazing?

I love things that remind me of simpler times and homemade applesauce does just that! Remember when your parents would make your lunch as a kid and inside, there would be some delicious applesauce? Those were the good ol’ days! I love the way that it takes you back to your childhood and is such an inexpensive way to create something new and delicious!

This homemade applesauce recipe is great to have on hand and use as a substitute in baking! Try using it while baking cakes, bread, and even muffins! It gives a different taste and texture to your baking and can be an easy way to switch up your recipes! Also, who knew that applesauce was so great for your digestion? Make some to keep on hand and try it as a mid-day snack. It’s healthier AND it will keep your insides happy!

What You Need For Homemade Applesauce

Quick and easy, homemade applesauce is something that even the most beginner of cooks can make! For all ingredient measurements, see the recipe card at the end of the post!

Apples: We used Granny Smith apples.
Water: You can use room temperature water for this recipe.
Sugar: The sugar is used to balance out any natural tartness from the apples.
Lemon Juice: You can use this from either a fresh lemon or lemon juice that you already have on hand.
Cinnamon: Using cinnamon is optional. It’s great to use this when eating the applesauce on its own but if you are using the homemade applesauce as an ingredient in another recipe then leave this out!

How to Make Homemade Applesauce

The taste of this homemade applesauce is subtle but has just enough flavor that you keep on coming back for more! I especially love that it is something that I can make often and use it so much without getting sick of it.

Peel your apples: After peeling them, chop them into 1-inch pieces. Add them to a large pot with water, sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon.
Bring to a boil: After you’ve brought them to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 25-30 minutes.
Mash the apples: Once your apples are tender then mash to desired consistency.
NOTE: For a thinner applesauce use an immersion blender, food processor, or blender.

Quick Tips for the Perfect Homemade Applesauce

Applesauce is a staple in our house! Here are some quick tips for making your applesauce just right. These will help make your homemade applesauce last longer and retain its delicious flavor!

Choosing your apples: You can use any kind of apples to make your applesauce. The good news is that they don’t need to be super crisp because you are going to be mashing them up anyways!
Cutting the apples: Make sure that when you chop up the apples that you chop them into evenly sized pieces. This helps them cook evenly so that they are all cooked through at the same time!
Adding the sugar: Sometimes your apples are sweet and some are more tart. You can add or take away the amount of sugar to get the sweetness level to just where you would like it!

Storing Homemade Applesauce

In the Refrigerator: Keep in a sealed container for a week to 10 days in the fridge.
In the Freezer: You can place applesauce in freezer bags, or sealed plastic storage containers. You can also pour some in ice cube trays if you are using smaller amounts for baby food or baking! Homemade applesauce can last in your freezer for about 6-8 months.
Thawing Frozen Applesauce: To thaw frozen applesauce, remove the container from the refrigerator and place it in the fridge for several hours or overnight. The water may separate from the apple but once thawed, give it a good mix and that will help in returning it to its original texture.
