How long do you cook rib eye steak for sandwiches?

The cooking time for a rib eye steak for sandwiches depends on the thickness of the steak and your desired level of doneness. Here's a general guide:

For a 1-inch thick rib eye steak:

* Rare: 2-3 minutes per side

* Medium-rare: 3-4 minutes per side

* Medium: 4-5 minutes per side

* Medium-well: 5-6 minutes per side

* Well-done: 6-7 minutes per side

Adjust cooking times based on thickness:

* Thicker steaks (over 1 inch): Add 1-2 minutes per side for each additional 1/4 inch.

* Thinner steaks (under 1 inch): Reduce cooking times by 1-2 minutes per side.

Important notes:

* Use a meat thermometer: To ensure accurate doneness, use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature should be:

* Rare: 125-130°F

* Medium-rare: 130-135°F

* Medium: 140-145°F

* Medium-well: 150-155°F

* Well-done: 160°F or above

* Rest the steak: After cooking, let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.

Remember: These are just general guidelines. Cooking times may vary depending on the specific cut of meat, the heat of your grill or pan, and your personal preference.
