4 boneless ribeye or New York strip steaks 1 to 1 ½ inches thick, 10-12 ounces each
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper to taste
Garlic Butter or butter, optional, for serving

Let steaks come to room temperature for 20-30 minutes.
Trim extra fat from the edges of the steaks. (This will help to prevent flare ups on the grill which could burn the outsides of the steaks.) Rub olive oil over both sides of steaks. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper
Preheat grill to high (500° F). Sear steaks over high heat for 2 minutes per side. Then reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking steaks with the grill closed until they reach your desired level of doneness, about 7-12 more minutes. (Cook time will depend on the thickness of the steaks, the grill temperature and how you like your steak cooked.) Remove steaks from the heat when they are 3-5° F below your desired doneness, because the internal temperature will continue to rise while the steak rests.
135° F for medium-rare
145° F for medium
150° F for medium-well
160° F for well done
Place steaks on a clean plate and let them rest for 5-10 minutes, loosely covered with foil, before slicing or serving. Serve with garlic butter or butter and chopped fresh herbs, if desired.
