O Que É Rib Eye?
Rib eye is a beef steak sliced from the rib section of a cow, specifically from the longissimus dorsi muscle. It is known for its rich marbling of fat, which melts during cooking to impart exceptional flavor and juiciness. This cut can be sold bone-in or boneless, with the bone-in version often referred to as a Tomahawk steak if the rib bone is left long.
"The key to a perfect rib eye is not just the cooking method, but also allowing it to rest adequately after searing to redistribute its succulent juices."
