Ribeye
- Combine garlic, herbs and oil in a large mixing bowl (big enough to hold steaks).
- Add steaks, coat evenly on all sides.
- Place in a shallow dish, cover and refrigerate until ready to cook (minimum of 1 hour, maximum of 12).
- Grill over high heat. Move meat 45 degrees, once or twice on each side, to cook evenly.
- Note: ribeye should be well charred to render fat and increase “grill” character or flavor.
- To serve, place steak on plate with corn, top steak with Pico de Gallo.
- Garnish with parsley or cilantro sprigs.
Pico de Gallo

Mexican-Style Corn
- Soak corn (husk on) in cold water for 30 minutes.

- Brush kernels with mayonnaise, and sprinkle with spiced salt, parsley and cheese.
- Serve while hot!
