A homemade three pepper rub tops this ribeye steak, which grills up in just a few minutes. The rub is made with three varieties of peppercorns and other savory seasonings.
Grind the black pepper, white pepper, pink pepper, salt, mustard seeds, onion, and garlic in a coffee grinder, food processor, or blender. Set aside.
Compound Butter
Mix the softened butter, cilantro, garlic, shallots, lime, and pepper together.
Place the butter mixture in a piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper, then twist the ends to create a sausage. Place in a cooler to set.
Ribeye Steak
Drizzle the steaks with the oil, then rub in to act as a binder.
Lightly salt then season with the three pepper rub.
Preheat the griddle or a skillet to high heat.
Sear the steak for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes per side. You want to reach an internal temperature of 127 to 130 degrees F (53 to 55 degrees C), for a medium-rare steak.
To Serve
Let the ribeye steak rest for 5 minutes.
Remove the compound better from the cooler and slice it into serving-size pats.
Serve after resting with the compound butter on top.
