I've been cooking fancy thick cut steak (ribeye, porterhouse, ny etc.) like once every couple of weeks. I think I have it nailed down pretty good but I would love any further tips:
>Season liberally on all sides and leave steak uncovered, on a rack, in the fridge overnight
>Get oven as low as it can reasonably go (~250F/120C for me) and place steak on rack in it
>Keep steak in oven until food thermometer is about 15 - 20F below how you like it (medium rare on the rarer side, duh)
>Get cast iron ripping hot on stove. Add a bit of canola oil to prevent stick.
>Sear steak on both sides for about 1 - 2 minutes
>Baste with butter and aromatics (rosemary and garlic) until food thermometer confirms internal temperature
>Tent and rest for 5 minutes
I just found out my butcher dry ages steak. Got a $20 ribeye that's been dry aged for 3 weeks. I'm assuming I don't need to leave uncovered on a rack then? Should I also be looking to baste this steak with aromatics or nah?
Would appreciate any thoughts/tips/tricks. Is there anything you always do with your steaks to take it to the next level?
(I don't have a grill.)

Bump please have I already reached the pinnacle of steakdom
For good cuts, just use a pan and know how to taper the heat. Start very hot, taper it down after building crust, turn it back up and flip, then taper down again. Use lots of butter also.
