ASHKINAZE RIB-EYE
This rub comes from Alan Ashkinaze, the longtime chef de cuisine for Laurent Manrique, a celebrity chef of sorts. Steak, in Mr. Ashkinaze's view, is crucial to the enjoyment of a grilled salad. And by steak, he means rib-eye, thick cut, on the bone. "I put a rub on it," he said. "Cooking at home, over a charcoal fire, I want to have some spice and sugar to help make a crust." He mixes sugar and salt, paprika and ancho-chile powder, tamps it all down with cumin, celery seeds, a little faux-Southern onion and garlic powder to create a mixture that manages not to obscure the meat's beefiness but somehow to intensify it.

Steps:
- Build a fire in your grill. If using a gas grill, turn all burners to high.
- Combine spices in a medium-size bowl. Rub steaks all over with mixture, and set aside.
- When all coals are covered with gray ash and the fire is hot (you can hold your hand 6 inches over the grill for only a few seconds), put steaks on grill directly over the coals, and cook until deeply seared, approximately 5 to 6 minutes. Turn the steaks over, and cook 6 to 8 minutes more for medium-rare. Remove steaks from grill, and allow to rest 5 to 7 minutes, while making salad. Serves 4.

Steps:
- Place a 10-to-12-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven and heat the oven to 500 degrees F. Bring the steak to room temperature.
- When the oven reaches temperature, remove the skillet and place on the range over high heat for 5 minutes. Coat the steak lightly with oil and sprinkle both sides with a generous pinch of salt. Grind on black pepper.
- Immediately place the steak in the middle of the hot, dry skillet. Cook 30 seconds without moving. Turn with tongs and cook another 30 seconds, then put the pan straight into the oven for 2 minutes. Flip the steak and cook for another 2 minutes. (This time is for medium-rare steak. If you prefer medium, add a minute to both of the oven turns.)
- Remove the steak from the skillet, cover loosely with foil and rest for 2 minutes. Serve whole or slice thin and fan onto plate.
MARINATED RIB EYES

HIMALAYAN SALT BLOCK RIB-EYE
Kick your steak grilling up a notch with a Himalayan salt block. It makes an amazing presentation for any get-together! In San Diego, I worked at a waterfront restaurant. The views were beautiful, and the chef had to make sure his dishes reflected that beauty. One day, he created a seasonal dish using a Himalayan salt block to cook the meat. I was instantly in love with this grilling technique and have used it ever since!

Steps:
- Preheat a grill to 250 degrees F.
- Place a Himalayan salt block onto the grates and cover the grill. After 20 minutes, raise the grill temperature to 325 degrees F. After 20 more minutes, raise the grill temperature to 400 degrees F.
- Meanwhile, bring the rib-eyes to room temperature.
- Brush both sides of the rib-eyes with the vegetable oil. Season the rib-eyes with the kosher salt and pepper on both sides.
- Place the rib-eyes on the Himalayan salt block and cover. Cook until the rib-eyes are golden and caramelized on the bottom and the internal temperature reads 125 degrees F, 7 to 10 minutes. Flip the rib-eyes, then apply 1 tablespoon of butter to the top of each and rest 1 sprig of rosemary on top of the butter. Continue to cook, covered, until the internal temperature reads 130 degrees F for medium rare, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the rib-eyes to a cutting board and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Remove the rosemary sprigs and finish with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
