Juicy, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned—these grilled bison ribeye steaks are a delicious upgrade from your usual beef. A must-try for any backyard BBQ or steak night.

Ingredients

For the Steak Rub:

2 tbsp mixed peppercorns

1 tbsp coriander seeds

1 tbsp dill seeds

½ tsp red pepper flakes

2 tbsp mustard seeds

2 tbsp sea salt

1 tbsp garlic powder

1 tbsp brown sugar

For the Steaks:

1 tbsp olive oil

4 boneless bison ribeye steaks (about 8 oz each)

Sea salt flakes, to garnish

Instructions

Make the Rub:
Using a mortar and pestle or coffee grinder, crush the peppercorns, coriander, dill seeds, and red pepper flakes. Add remaining rub ingredients and stir to combine.

Prep the Steaks:
Brush steaks on both sides with olive oil. Rub generously with the spice blend (you may not need all of it). Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for deeper flavor.

Bring to Room Temp:
Remove steaks from the fridge 30 minutes before grilling.

Grill the Steaks:
Preheat grill to medium-high heat (400°F). Place steaks on grill and cook to desired doneness, flipping once.

Rare: 120°F–125°F

Medium-Rare: 130°F–135°F

Medium: 140°F–145°F

Well Done: 160°F–175°F

Rest & Serve:
Remove steaks from the grill, tent loosely with foil, and let rest for 5–10 minutes. Garnish with sea salt flakes and serve.

Notes

Don’t skip resting the steaks — it locks in moisture and flavor.

No spice grinder? Use a rolling pin or kitchen mallet to crush the spices.

Leftovers keep well refrigerated in an airtight container for 3–4 days.

Serve with grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a fresh salad.
