Here’s a hearty Carnivore Steak recipe—simple, primal, and loaded with flavor. Perfect for those following a carnivore, keto, or low-carb diet.

Carnivore Ribeye Steak Recipe

Ingredients:

1 large ribeye steak (1–1.5 inches thick)

Salt (preferably sea salt or Redmond Real Salt)

Optional: Beef tallow, butter, or ghee for cooking

Instructions:

Bring to Room Temp:
Take the steak out of the fridge 30–60 minutes before cooking to bring it to room temperature. This helps it cook more evenly.

Season:
Generously season both sides with salt. That’s it—no herbs, no pepper, just salt for the pure carnivore approach.

Heat the Pan:
Heat a cast iron skillet or grill over high heat until it’s smoking hot. You can add a tablespoon of beef tallow, ghee, or butter for extra fat and flavor.

Sear:
Sear the steak for about 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Adjust time based on thickness and preferred doneness. Press it down slightly to ensure even sear.

Optional Crust Finish:
After searing, you can add a spoonful of butter and baste the steak while it rests in the pan for 30 seconds to a minute.

Rest:
Let the steak rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing. This keeps the juices inside and makes the meat more tender.

Bonus Tallow Butter (Carnivore “Sauce”)

Optional but amazing.

Ingredients:

2 tbsp beef tallow

1 tbsp butter (or more tallow for strict carnivore)

Dash of salt

Melt together in a pan and pour over your steak before serving.
